Rough Idle and Low Power - Solved
I have been working through a rough idle (as if running on 3 cylinders) and no low end power for a few weeks.
Finally solved the problem. It was a bad connector to the Ref sensor.
I moved the wires around over the weekend, and went to a no-start condition. Went back the next morning, moved the wires again. The car fired right up, and idled smoothly. Drove it 70 miles and it pulled strong and even acclerated in 5th gear.
So add this to your list of things to check when you have a bad idle and no low-end power.
