Title: Mk3 16v abf power loss
Post by: big dodd on 04 August 2011, 05:25
Took my car to be serviced yesterday and found spark plugs under an inch of oil due to rocker cover gasket, all vacuum hoses were perished, cracked dizzy, burnt out dizzy pins, burnt out rotor arm, ruined leads so all this was replaced for new plus service but now the car feels like it isn't revving as well, the only thing that is different to before was the plugs now they are the triple spark any ideas?

Its a miracle the car was still running with all those things duff!

Check everything has been connected back up properly.

Check and see what rotor arm they have fitted, some early ones had a limiter built in.
