Hi there,

My 4agze is having a problem from which I did not find out what this could be.

The engine-light burns constantly on the dashboard, even when I connect E1 and TE1 in the diagnostic connector. So it is impossible to read out any code.

The problems are as followed:

When I start the engine, it seems to be that the engine is running on 2 or 3 cilinders. Shortly after the cold start it runs so slowly that he dies and the engine will turn off after a few seconds...

Once the engine is running, the engine runs very rich (exhaustgasses stinks extremely ) and the more I will give gass to accelerate, the more the engine is stuttering. It runs maximum of about 3500 rpm and max. speeds is about 120 km/h. Completely out of power.

Please who can help me with tis problem?

See a movie on youtube:

Fixed yet or not? Sounds more like ignition. Leads still working and plugged correctly ? Plugs good? Coilpacks still working?
Next place I'd check after ign is fuel. Go basics first, fuel filter blocked? Good fuel your using? Injectors blocked? Fuel lines kinked, blocked damaged?
