Hi need your thoughts on this hope you guys can help.
Anyway went to a show today car started ok went to show for aprox 4 hrs re started car and as soon as you let the clutch out car starts to hesitate will not go so you eventually get it up to fourth you cant give it any throttle just barely enough revs to keep it going and it plods along but change down car looses power and it hesitates like mad . oil pressure is ok water temp is ok too .Gonna take the bonnet off and have a look . feels like an old car i had when the ht leads were breaking down.
Car had 6000 service about 1000 miles ago

Thanks

i still don't know much about the tvr but this happened to me on the lotus
and it sounds the same
it was my fuel line
this can be the fuel pump or the pressure valve (i had a busted valve)
it feels like the car is getting to much petrol
the moment you even look at the trottle it stalls
good luck

Thanks Rens and pete for your replies tryed to sort it using your advice but it turned out to be a fault
with the traction control which was fitted to the car before i bought it. Anyway never used the traction control cos the engine builder said this was the cause of the engine failing. when its on it causes car to miss dont know why but got it sorted now. thanks smile
