Need some help,
Just had my car retuned and it was running fine for a few days then driving to work (usual Scottish downpour) this morning on M8 and car started to splutter. Pulled over and let her sit for a while started up and went off again and all was fine but I noticed as I drove off a screeching sound coming from the engine (no small kids or animals under there - took them out the other day! :twisted: )
Anyway - stuck my head under the bonnet at lunch time and whilst reving the throttle with my sfinger I traced the screech to the carb. It s like when the air gets sucked it is squeels briefly.
Noticed driving home car was ok but a little sluggish in the lower revs and occasionally stalled when slowing down.
Cars a 1.2 mk2 carbbed engine with k&n bolted to it
Wasnt squeeling the other day - anyone got any ideas?
(also my dash lights seem to have stopped working along with my clock lights and left rear lamp and left front side light despite puitting a new one in last night! :evil: porb fuse)
Anyone help me???
