182 running bad in low revs

[zakprice]

my 182 has recently started running bad around 2k revs it hesitates and then will go past that and be ok to redline. It sounds even worse on idle it splutters and feels like the engine has a missfire.

I have changed plugs, leads and coil and it is still going. What do people suggest it could be?

Sticky throttle body, inlet leak?

i will have a look at the throttle body later but i cleaned it out not long ago....could it be fueling. save me going to renault and them charging me silly amounts just want to try and sort it myself.

Same problem! See my thread..

I'm guessing injectors / lambda or something, have you checked the plugs since you've fitted them?

Any fault codes?

 

[zakprice]

yeah i ran a fault code last night and it said misfire on cylinder 4. it could be an injector or a bad connection to the injector. The plugs, leads and coil were new not long ago so i wouldnt think it is that.

Mine I replaced the injectors and coilpack with genuine new items and sorted it
