Hi all, have an issue with the rolla, will start and idle, but as soon as you put any revs on it, it gets " chocked" and almost does. Has new plugs, new fuel filter, exhaust isn't blocked, tried a new map sensor, new air filter, just won't go past 2k. Left me stranded on my way to work yesterday. Couldn't even drive it onto a car trailer as I said it chocked itself one you aply power. My mechanic doesn't seem to think its the fuel pump, but he has no idea what the problem is. Help please?!!

Vacuum leak?

 

And I'd seriously consider finding another mechanic if yours can't diagnose an issue on a 4AGE.

Cool I'll have a look this afternoon when I go check on the car, yeah fair point, he is good, but spends most of his time on fiats, lancias, alfas etc. cheers for the advice

Unplug the tps and see if its any better.

Does it have an AFM or MAP? My MAP sensor was buggered and caused a similar issue.

Has map sensor, got a brand new one but made no difference. Will suggest tps and vaccine leak to him on Monday

When my MAP was dodgy it was just then loom plug.
