Hi! I am hoping that a reader might know what causes this?
We own a 2002 model Ford focus. For months I have noticed that often when taking off from stationary positiin or when trying to accellerate uphill get an inexplicable "drag" on the engine; as though not enough fuel is getting through to the motor. As soon as it build's up speed this disappears; and I never have this trouble when driving at a steady speed (or slowing down). I recently added an fuel additive tp the petrol in case the fuel injectors and cylinders need cleaning; it does not seem to have cured the problem. I would appreciate it if readers, especially if they are Focus owners (or mechanics) themselves could offer me suggestions as to what the cause might be. |
