Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
My puma has just started juddering on acceleration, theres a deep noise that goes with it, and a smell - like burning. I'm wondering if this is exhaust related, the clutch was replaced 5 months ago and fine. The engine light is flashing on the dashboard......any ideas before the local mechanic gets a call?
