Injection engines don't have a choke


Duh. Good point.

Probably an electrical fault somewhere then, could be the MAF/MAS Sensor.

sam it wasn't a dig at you.but as well meaning as people are.the vague info given means that lady should go to a garage as she wont get the problem properly diagnosed until she does.
