Hi Forum Members,
First time poster on the forum – hope I can find an answer to my questions here.
I have a 350Z which I bought new and is now 8 years/87k miles old. I still get a thrill out of getting into it every day and it is still a joy to drive. I count myself lucky to own a Zed.
Thing is, I know very little about cars and when something goes wrong I have little idea what the cause is and what to do about it – hence my question today.
In the cold weather the car is failing to start. On turning the ignition key, the engine turns over fine (the battery is only a couple of years old) but the engine is failing to rev itself enough to keep itself running. It doesn't seem to rev very high and the engine just splutters to a stop.
I was wondering what might cause this and what I could do about it? It goes in for an MOT next month and I was wondering if there is some adjustment I could ask them to make that would solve the problem
Thanks for any guidance.
Best,
The Trouser
PS I have had a look around using the search function but was unable to find my exact problem.
