Help please starting to have enought of this thing now

[mjtm]

Right I changed the engine to a 1.3 engine put a 4-2-1 manifold on it it ran fine for about an hour and now it's not running right only idles for about two minutes the. Cuts out and when you try and drive everytime you accelerate it misses and takes ages to catch the revs if no one can help its going scrap yard

could be any one of a hundred causes, was it a complete 1.3 engine ?

 

[mjtm]

Yeah I had a complete car swapped every thing over that I could

 

[frank]

have you still got the 1.0 t/b and dizzy ?

 

[mjtm]

[frank]

fitting those would be a good start to the process of elimination

 

[mjtm]

Just changed them and still the same what else

[mjtm]
