So of course since its the coldest day its been this winter, the truck 73 series III decides to have problems, I had the car "serviced" by a reputable british car shop, and a day later this issue pops up. They did a fluid change and adjusted the valves, normally i would do it, but i was going on vacation and I needed an inspection.
The truck seems to be lacking its normal power, it struggles going up hill, eventually it bogs out, bucks and dies. the same on the flat if 1st and 2nd its fine, I can drive and rev it all the way up, when I shift into 3rd its fine but as i get to the top end of revs its starts to die and buck.
Fuel starvation? air leak? they didn't adjust the timing and I think richened the mixture by a 1/2 turn What are your thoughts..
Thanks
