Mk1 1997 Punto 55s 1.1L
May seem a bit odd but none of our puntos, mk1 or mk2 would start at 16:20 ish...
After a min had passed they were both fine again?
This has happened before where any of the puntos with an ecu wont start - noth just ours but every punto on our road. at this same time none would start???
we have a 1997 mk1 & 2004 mk2, the other on our road are 2004 mk2 & 2005 mk2... odd
Anyway, back to the mk1. recently it hasn't start very well. i.e passed 2 days.
attempt 1 - it started, then stalled. (cold)
attempt 2 - it started, moved, then stalled (cold)
attempt 3 - started but sounded rough (cold)
later that day
attempt 1 - started fine no issues ran perfect (Cold)
Later..
attempt 1 - started fine no issues (Warm)
Next day
Attempt 1 - started no issues (cold)
Later..
attempt 1 - started but after 20 mins a rattle sound from ENGINE (not the exhaust - exhaust rattles at back and sound was Clearly different) (warm)
Later....
attempt 1 - started and ran perfect (cold / warm)
Next day - (today)
The car started fine and ran perfectly under this after noon.
The engine was shaking alot after starting the engine cold / warm - this was after the car had been used to cover around 20 miles eailer today, it had been parked for a few hours.
after restarting the engine the shaking stopped and the car ran fine... until.....
Started it about 1 hour ago, all seemed fine but alittle off, going up the road less than 200m the car judders and jerks, like it does when it runs out of petrol anyway, i manage my journey all of 1 mile. drop off my passenger and come back.
On my way back it feels down on power (Only a little so instead of running engine at idle most of the time i rev it alittle - like you would normally) this works until i get to the end of my road. this time it jerks and judders ALOT as if the engine had just cut out then bump started it'self form the momentum
My guess is the ingintion coils on the way out, the feul system is clean - so i belive - the car transmission seems alittle noisey aswell so im going to change gear oil. any thoughts on this issue - max budjet for any parts & repair is £40 so a garage is out
Cheers
