Engine stutters under load
« on: 01 October 2009, 23:25:07 »
Help. My omega 2.0 has just started to stutter as if misfiring at around 2000 revs. The car shudders its way past this point then acts a bit normally. It ticks over fine i have no EML on the dash. Plugs where changed last weekend as the car had developed a slight stutter then but now its bad.

well, if you dont find any codes as suggested, then having changed the plugs you'll need to check the leads and dis pac next. Any signs of damage to either, change it. But check for codes first as said.
