Can anyone recommend a good mechanic or garage in the ipswich area that knows there way around the Z?

Mine is running like a bag of shit like it's running on 4 or 5 cylinders? And strangely I don't have anything at all were the PTU normally goes on the cam belt cover?

Give t&m in Colchester a bell mate, they are pretty good and if they can't solve it then they might call in the ex specialist in zeds that looks at my car when needed.

If your in colchester, your more than welcome to pop over so we can try a few things, although, I'm certainly not an expert.

I live in ipswich but work in kelvedon so will be passing Colchester just after 5pm tomorrow if your about mate?

I get home from work at 6 if you want to give a few bits a try mate.

Your PTU has probably been relocated under the front nose panel, but there are several things to check for rough running, check out the tech section, lots of info there.

Hi mate i`m in Chelmsford if you want to pop over in your spare time. I have the tech to plug in and see what`s going on and pretty good at fault finding on our cars.

Let me know and i`ll p.m you my number.

that would be great mate, ive got the car with me today in kelvedon

was the escort a pickup? was it twin engine or 1 engine twin turbo? his latest car which i think he sold now was a 600bhp 1jz Lexus is200
