This car is really getting on my nerves now would really appreciate some advice with this.
Car was fine last weekend, put a new battery on today, car took ages and ages to start and once it did it sounded really bad, it was missfiring and spluttering and I had to keep my foot on the throttle for it to run, after a few minutes it cleared and I left to warm up on idle, when I came out to check on it it had stalled. started it up fine, then when I take my foot off throttle it cuts out.
What should I be looking at, someone told me possibly the alternator, but its putting out 13/14volts.
thanks for any help folks!:cry:
