I realise this isn't the place to ask but you never know, someone might be able to help.
I've got a Yaris 1.3 (2000) which develops an issue where the symptoms are
lack of power
rough idle
misfire?
No engine lights are on and it drives fine when it isn't doing it. It doesn't do it all the time, it only seems to do it when it has been running for a good 10-20 minutes. Fuel economy also drops right down and it smells a bit like it is running very rich when the misfire happens.
I don't think it's plugs or HT leads as it would do it all the time? Also I can't see it being an air mass meter as it doesn't feel like that, it still revs fine but takes an ice age to get there. I realise the fact that it's a 1300cc engine will make it slow but it is slower than it should be.
Hopefully one of you chaps and give me an idea? I don't really want to sign up to a Yaris forum as they are a bit different to this place.
Think along the lines of...
