help !!? :(

Post by Scottyy101 »

recently when ive been starting my car on these cold damp morning there seems to be a few little thumps coming from it as its on tick over, and when putting your foot down or sometimes if not, i seems to feel like im losing power and the car starts to chug :S and it will seem to do this through every gear, however when the engine warms up a little the problem seems to go away?

any ideas on what could be going on here? as i havent a clue! bearing in mind also the engine has done about 95k
any help appreciated thanks guys in advance

if you have a dizzee and ht leads check them and make sure they arent getting wet/damp inside try spraying wd40 on them if not like said above check your plugs
