Hello again
I got round to getting the cam sensor fitted today, and the engine management light went off! I can rev it over 4500rpm so thats sorted.
Car feels a little perkier now, although that may be a figment of my imagination.
I still have the load problem, every time I put my foot down or go up a slight incline it starts to stutter and choke, and Its as if have I no power left, have to feather the throttle to keep it going!! I remember someone saying that a cam sensor would solve 99% of my problems :(
WHAT COULD IT BE!!!!!

I had a slight hesitation / splutter on mine and it was the coil pack starting to fail
