Why cant i just get a car that works

[Mark]

Sierra is starting to play up already :mad:

Has sod all power when cold and even when warm is low on power till about 3k then it takes off. was thinking something like dirty injectors ?????

Has new plugs, leads and air filter. Also idles at a very steady 1000rpm

Timing possibly?
Or your mixtures?

[Mark]

not sure how you alterthe timing on the DOHC as the dizzy appears to be fixed and has zero adjustment. Gonna look at the fuel filter as well may be old and blocked
