Doctor I'm ill
Hey folks..
On the way back from Batley this afternoon, the car started to misfire badly, the engine light came on and started a regular flashing, and the engine was shaking the car, and way-way down on power..... I had just overtaken a couple of slow cars, and may have very briefly touched the rev limiter, but this started a minute or two after that and surely that's what the limiter is for, so you don't damage the engine?.. I know it's a bit like ringing the Doctor and saying I'm ill whats the matter with me, but has anyone got any idea what it could be?. I managed to get it back to the garage I bought it from, and had to leave it there... so heres hoping that it's not too serious

You only put the exhaust in the boot and frightened it to bits.

Hopefully they can sort it fairly quickly anyway...
