    Default 1.6 Gte power loss!

    Hi, my gte has lost power sound like a scooby
    but without the go! Popin from the exhaust on idle
    have changed leads, plugs fine, checked timing.
    had suspected the coil at fault, but tried the one off my Xe,
    still same problem. Starts fine.
    Any ideas anyone?


    cheers

    Sounds like it's running on 3 cylinders?
    oil and water all ok?

    Is one of the plugs wet? Then you can point on which cyl. you can start looking.
    GTE is with the dizzy, maybe start looking in the cap?
