Hi,can anyone help me with my turbo problem.

Anyway i have been told by people it may be my turbo.

My car seems ok up until 2000 revs,but sometimes over this it misses and i loose power,and it goes into kangaroo mode.

I did have a fuel problem,but this is now ok,(i think).

Please,any information would be gratefully accepted.

Regards zrx

I think its more likely to be an injector problem, you need to get the fault codes read.

Hi,thankyou,

I had the machine on it over weekend,which found nothing.

But AA guy thought it was fuel starvation,as engine would not start,but could not fix it.

I addapted my henry hoover,conected it to fuel pipe and managed to get fuel up yo the filter,and it now works,apart from the 2000 revs part.

When it was not starting,engine fault kept coming up on dash,but not since i got fuel back.
