You are NOT gonna believe this

Ok where do i start...driving to work tonight quite happily roaming through the gears then not a lot of power...followed by no power...followed by the engine running in way reminiscant of a knackered tractor.

 

Now the thing will hardly run at all and sounds like it's on 2 cylinders struggling (with my foot planted on the floor) at 200rpm.

 

Please help....as i understand that a lot of you guys use your zeds as second cars but mine is a daily driver and without it i'm totally fooked.

 

I just don't know what the hell is wrong with it...its either the cam belt or the ptu, but i don't know how the egine runs when the ptu is dead??

 

I'm gettin rapdily to the end of my tether with this car as its only been two weeks since i finally got the heater and the damn clutch working properly!!

 

If anyone near to CHESTER has the CONZULT diagnostic system and can spare a few eveing hours this week, please (and yes i'm begging) get in touch asap.

 

Failing that and if the worst comes to the worst does anyone have a half decent NA engine lying about from a trashed or deaded zed?

 

A severely UNmerry Rich........ :( .......... :headvswal ...........:cry:

Errr you might get a better response mate if you post this in "Help and Advice" section. ;)

Rich,

 

By the sound of it you could have a fooked PTU! Unfortunatley I no, longer have a spare PTU, but I'm sure someone on here, and a bit closer to you, may very well help you out with one. Even if it's just a loan one to test this out.

Put a post up in Help & Advice aswell, as it'll get noticed a bit more in there.

 

I wish you luck with it, and don't dispare, it'll work out in the end :)

All the best.
