Title: 2000 MV6 3.0 Won't run below 3000 RPM
Post by: bobgod on 20 November 2008, 21:40:54

After 3 years trouble free years motoring with my MV6 it suddenly developed a lumpy tick over on the way home from work on monday,now it won't start properly.
It will start briefly but seems to be only firing on a few cylinders and cuts out after a few seconds.
Giving it some throtle makes it cut out sooner but if you catch it and get it above 3000 RPM it run perfecttly.
Anyone have any ideas?
I can't afford to pay someone to fix it so if I can't do it myself I'll have to scrap it!
Thanks

welcome to OOF. :y
If you fill in your details (location etc) there may be some one in your locality who could come and help.
Would advise posting your problem in general help section as the technical gurus tend to spend a lot of time lurking in there. :y
