quicky1980 0 Posted July 14, 2006 Had a cambelt change last week and ive oly just had chance to drive it. Found that when first started, you can drive for a short while (500 yards) and all of a sudden the car looses all power and seems to feel like its going to back fire. sometimes cuts out. after a few seconds it will clear itself and drive as normal. it will re occur the next time the car is started and driven from warm or cold. could this be timing or something else? 2.0 16v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quicky1980 0 Posted July 15, 2006 hmm, plausable, but seems strange its since the cam belt change. saying that though the car hasnt been driven for a few weeks so maybe. i can leave the car for a min or two and this problem occurs so must be bad leak if thats the problem. think it occurs more when hot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted July 15, 2006 Sounds like the ignition timing wasn't set up properly - take it back... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
