hey guys, just wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
used to stall and misfire, changed fuel pumps and the car runs a lot better, but still runs a bit rough mostly at idle and has no power on take off.
cheers!

retarded timing by the sounds of it. would need more detail than that to really know, also when you changed fuel pump did you check/replace fuel filter and take out injectors to get cleaned?

ah ok.
the bloke i bought it off reckons he had the timing done, but maybe it was done a bit dodgy haha.
nah didnt get the injectors done, being an apprentice im not the richest, did replace filter though.
is it worth doing?
