Bongo Fury

Hi, please help.

Since last night while driving back in the motorway from a trip to Birmingham every time I put the foot down while going uphill the engine would loos power as if something was clocking. Luckly the rest of the trip was down hill as I was heading south so made it back

A friend suggested that it might be the air filter or the fuel filter so I tried to clean the air filter but problem is unsolved, can anyone tell me what is wrong with my baby?

Thanks guys

Alex

Don't know what clocking is but it's probably worth changing your fuel filter and/or banjo filter (do a search for banjo filter - there's loads on here about it).

Has your turbo pipe come adrift ?????????

Pipe come adrift ( as said above), turbo pipe collasped, or small vacuum hose as seen in the picture in this topic... http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... pe#p314350

Thats where I would start, failing that check some of these topics for ideas.......

All the best.

The pipe shown on the picture on the link posted by brorabongo is fine and there are no likeages, and I'm guessing that the thin pipe on the picture is the turbo pipe?

no thats the small vacuum hose ...big pipe is the top hose of cooler

turbo is under passenger seat on the exhaust side of engine

Banjo filter'd be top suspect for me, factsheet in members area, think it might be under "fuel strainer"

Thanks guys, I've ordered a fuel filter anyway as I never changed it and also will check the correct pipe and jave a go on cleaning the bajo filter hoping that is not going too bady wrong.

Thanks again, what would I do without this forum ehi?

It does sound like fuel starvation of some sort... The banjo filter sounds a likley culprit.
