Hi everyone, my names Tom, I've been lurking for a while and searching the forum for an answer to my problems.
My puma is running pretty rough, it doesn't start unless I give it a little bit of throttle, once started it misfires at idle. It also kangaroos a bit under 3000rpm on a partial throttle. It's ok with the throttle wide open but it does feel a bit sluggish. There is also alot of black soot around the exhaust which would indicate it's running rich.
So far I have replaced the coil pack, leads and plugs, the o2 sensor, MAF, and the air filter. I have also cleaned the ICV. I've also tried resetting the ecu but none of this has helped.
I was going to change the tps next but I don't know what to try vif that doesn't work.
Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Tom
