Sounds like over fueling, plus prob timing being out. Which leads to suggest you need to check all the sensors. Usual cause of overfueling is the lambda sensor dying, broken wiring connectors or the blue temp sendor dead.

 

Do a search, all this has been covered before.

try changing the fuel filter, plugs,

crank pully slipped ?

My bet would be on the timing being out, too.

 

Check whether the timing marks on flywheel, camshaft sprocket and distributor line up, then check timing is set to 6° BTDC.

it sounds alot like the problem i had, it turned out to be the fuel filter and the plugs, might aswell change them as there not that expensive or hard to do.

Awesome chaps think i've sorted it changed a vacuum pipe that goes to the pressure regulator and i thinks that done it just got to give it a road test next step a fill service me thinks, not bad for a £400 shitter. Mainstealers my arse!!! Thanks for all your responses think i'll be hanging around here Laters Dave
