    power loss

    after sitting in morning city centre traffic for roughly 20mins and go to pull off at lights etc the c only pulls on what it seems like half a cylinder then onto to say two or three cylinders then onto full power but is hestatant(spelt wrong),this happens when sitting in city centre traffic for more than or thereabouts 10/15/20mins, when the engine is heated up ..2L 16V, it freqently does not kick into full power until 4000revs anyone any ideas.

    blown head gasket

    make sure you get someone who knows what exactly they are doing ie: a mechanic, cause in one case they got the apprentice to strip and rebuild, the car is now with another honest mechanic, and also do not pay them until you take it for a 20min run , give it a good rallying andit should prove to be a lot quicker.
  10. try disconnecting the battery , then leaving it for 10mins and connect again
