Bongo Fury

hi, we have had our bongo for nearly 2 weeks.It has started to stall, once warm at a junction or when slowing down.it will restart , but struggles to and struggles to start anyway.has been serviced and 1 glow plug changed last week.once it restarts it seems to have little power, even with foot down to the board and takes a while to get going again.any suggestions as we are due to go to isle of wight at the end of week.

Hi could be air filter/fuel filter/s fuel cap,drawing air,are you the guy with the flashing light ?

Cheers.

hi, yes i am the lady with the flashing light.the car has just been serviced.the oil fliter, air filter and fuel filter were all changed. 1 glow plug was changed.they said the flashing light was after factory fitted and said we need to see an auto electrician.any ideas please?

its usually best to do all the glow plugs

try running without the filler cap...its vent can be blocked

Check for fuel leaks around the fuel pump, under the driver's seat.
Did you buy it from a dealer or privately?

Not necessarily a big mistake. Firstly, your problems may be simple ones to fix. Secondly (and this is the view I took when I bought mine privately) the saving over cost of buying from a dealer (itself not a guarantee you won't have trouble) should be enough so that if you have to spend them on repairs, you may still be no worse off than dealer price. Let's hope so anyway!. Good luck and keep us posted.
