Sometimes a hairline crack on one of the contacts

Cold weather or aircon on or heater on high ?check the mass air flow
-
Just a thought.if you had a loose fitting fuel filter..eg..sucking in air somewhere..it would be rough at low revs, but might self seal when its warmed up ? Just a thought !
-
Possibly a bad earth..water getting into the rear ??

You dont really need to fill up with v-power fuel.i dont think a fuel company would make or sell bad fuel that damaged your engine.a good long run or decoke or an additive that desolves the build up should do.i hope its not poor compression ?
-
Small relay switch..small black plastic plug/box...you can see these on ebay ? (auris glow plug timer)
-
Summer time..glow plug light will still pop up on the dash for 2 seconds or so..not half a second

Tthink of it as..180 bhp in the engine and 173 bhp at the tyre/wheel ?

I have an idea off a good mechanic.some engine/decoke/egr additive to fuel cleaners do actually work, but you need to check out the temperature that they need to reach to do there bit.some fuel additives will make your car run at a higher combustion, you just need to be aware to give your car a good run in a lower gear and dont keep adding to your fuel tank all the time.i dont know if the JLM stuff is any good, but there are plenty good write ups.

There is a place in manchester that do refurb injectors, warranty too.you need the old one to part ex..i cant remember the name...i think it was pf jones
-
All sorted now thanks..Answers etc are on another post/forum..thanks to all😁
-
Please keep us all informed.i have read that adfitives to fuel dont really clean the egr and the best way is to do it yourself.i have poor but not bad mpg, so im looking forward to see if its your problem.i know there is a post on here saying cleaning their egr gave them better mpg, but its good to have lots of info...good luck
