Power loss, cut out but recovers
Posted: Tue Dec 05, 2017 10:01 pm
Hi,
New to the Bongo and just got a 1995 diesel 4WD. Starts first turn of the key and runs really well. Sometimes after about 30 minutes driving it starts to misfire, looses power (accompanied by what looks like some white smoke). Sometimes it recovers, but occasional it has slowed until the engine stops. After as little as 20 seconds it will start and run fine for the rest of the journey. It's not loosing coolant and the temperature gauge stays steady with no signs of overheating.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
