Honda Accord "Pinking" and Power Lack 17 Feb 2002 (Forum)
I also have lack of power sometimes when pulling off in first (gets bogged down for a few seconds then accelerates OK). Other times the car runs fine.

OIl sludge 7 Jan 2001 (Forum)
My 95 ford fiesta 1.1LX appears to use a lot of oil, I can see no leaks, it does not appear to burn any oil but it does have a oil sludge problem, it is reguarly serviced and doesnt do short runs. I have changed the oil filler/breather cap (i.e. crankcase ventilation) to solve the sludge problem but this hasn't made any difference. The car itself runs perfect I'm just fed up with putting oil in all the time!!!! -
