okay. so i just bought an nf fairlane 1996 v8 with 114 thou kays on the clock. duel fuel..
it runs okay on gas, its a bit doughy but...
petrol on the other hand. quite pokey but when i accelrate normally or even hard, and i come up to a turn or a roundabout, my revs drop to just under 1 thou... and then they go up to say 1500 and then bak down to 1000 and it just keeps doin it, and at the same time my car is accelrating forward fast and slowing down and so on.... and then it will just eventually cut out..
i need answers asap. all help would be greatly appreciated, i only bought the car on satday

thanks
alex

sounds like a sensor is on it's way out.. possibly the TPS or something in that family

how do i go about fixing it? do i bother with it myself or take it to a mechanic?
and if i get it serviced they should pick up on it right?

well i took it to get a service, they did a carbon clean and said it might fix it... it didnt...... he said if it doesnt work then i will prolly have to get my injectors cleaned.... thing is i forgot to ask how much it would set me back..
any body got any figures for me? any tips?
cheers
alex
