|
|
Went to view a 1995 2.8 pajero today and it was very clean inside, underneath and only 80 thou on the clock but it had a little niggle. When giving it a little rev whilst parked on the down rev the engine would have a little splutter when just reaching idle like it was going to stall then immediately correct itself and resume a good idle. I was wondering if anyone had any idea what it could be?
Driving it was great, plenty of power, immediate response and when coming to a halt all was good.
Thanks
Andy |

It could be all sorts of things. It's only my opinion from a distance, but it's probably nothing too serious. You could use the issue to get the price down if it's an otherwise sound vehicle. |

Was the engine hot or cold?
If cold then maybe just one or two glow plugs need changing.
I don't think that it would be anything serious. |

Thanks for the reply lads, it did this when the engine was cold and hot. I may take a gamble and try get it at a good price as it was a very clean motor. |
