TD42 woes

[timespast]

Ive been noticeing over a few months that my patrol is not as powerfull and is a lot slower/gutless than it used to be.

im now running 33's but maintaing speed on hills is very hard even 60 or so. times foot flat to the floor the car has no go at all. trying to start uphill from lights even a gentle slope and it really really strugles to get above 3rd gear.

she has 252 thou and is getting a service at 253 which will be a major one. what should i look at for that service is this normal or could it be injector/pump woes.

its running 4.1 ratios. stock airfilter (paper) prefilter (paper)

Cheers

I agree. It is probably a blocked filter - fuel filter or the filter screen under your banjo fitting on your IP.

this should help there might be a filter under the bolt with the red mark on it not all pumps have them though
