Well it seems loads of us get this problem :bang:
After my thread yesterday Plug Leads \ Coil Packs
It seems this didnt resolve my problem
as the the last post says :-
The car starts ok
Ticks over fine
No back firing
No smoke
On warming up, car intermittantly looses power
Stutters \ Judders
The above hasnt sorted it as I hoped it would.
Anyway been doing a bit of reading over the whole forum for other causes perhaps the more mechanicaly minded can elaborate maybe upload a pic or two showing whering to look etc to help us less mechanical minded to resolve this annoying problem
Things it can be if not Plugs \ Plug Leads \ Coil Packs (CP)
Even I managed to change all those
When fitting leads to Coil Packs the order from the front is 2 \ 3 in first CP 1 \ 4 second CP
Other suggestions
1) Lamba Sensor - Where is this and how do we check?
2) Fuel Filter - Drawing air - Where is this and how do we check?
3) Ignition Coils - Where are these and how do we check?
4) Dodgy MAP sensor - Where is this and how do we check?
5) Dirty Throttle Body - Where is this and how do we check?
6) Clutch Release Bearing - Well we know where it is, is there any way to test it?
Feel FREE to add to the list with other suggestions I havent put Head Gasket on.
Any replies and pictures uploaded Im sure will be gratefully received by all Punto drivers with this promblem - Present or Future
Perhaps we need this thread in FAQ's or as a Sticky ? Dave
