Hi all,
Just cured a problem on my 99 GU thats been persisting for too long, I was nearly going to put into a dealer !!
Its had intermittent sort of miss/jerky acceleration/slugish performance -- changed from finer filter washable to a half dirty std filter and the problem was not so pronounced. Finally got round to buying a new filter element and in the process of fitting it noticed a damaged white wire on the plug to air flow sensor, the wire was completely through but held by insulation. Must have been damaged when removing air filter element as you have to force a bit to one side to access filter.
Anyway it goes real
well now after I repaired connection. So it is worth having a good look around all all the various connectors to ensure they are actully connected.
