Running problem (Not my scooby)

[lady-turbo-wrx]

Happy new year folks,i need a bit of help or at least my son does

He's got a problem with his Saxo "Again" this is whats going on!!!

Saxo number 1 was written off but kept for spares,as had a full bodykit good engine etc.... so got he got another saxo number 2,and until a few days ago car was running fine,but being a normal lad,he uses the car all the time,and ran out of money for fuel,so syphoned the fuel from Saxo no 1.. now we have a problem,ticks over ok for a while,then starts hunting,no power under load could the fuel have been contamunated??

If not what do you think could of caused this??

Thanks Trace x x

Probably crap in the fuel,

Must have sucked some sh*t of the bottom of the old tank.

Clear out fuel lines and replace fuel filter.??


That's what I would do but I'm no mechanic.

Happy New year, Trace x

hi trace, yeah try what big E said first and see what its like after that plus check for any air leaks might have something to do with it hunting.

Yup, agree with Big E.

It may pay you / him to replace the fuel filter. It may well of sucked up some 5hite and semi blocked the filter?



Reminds me when one of my wifes old cars had a problem. I got it done for her and she said "what was it?" .................... I said "5hit in the carburetor" ..............she said "how often have I got to do that?"

Id say the same tbh, probably crap from the bottom of the tank

Agree with Big E, might also be worth draining as much of the old petrol out of the tank
