Title: It started with loss of power!!!
Post by tiltingman on Apr 13^th, 2004, 10:13pm

N Reg 107,000 miles, looked after Scorpio 2.0 Ultima. Driving home 1 day when for no reason, loss of power.
Over the next few weeks, starting loosing water?
Then called RAC for a second look. Cracked head. Garage couldn't find a second hand one, so a reconditioned engine from a place in Doncaster (£400) was ordered.
After replacement, engine still wouldn't rev passed 3000rpm. Cat blocked. Ordered second hand Cat from same place...all is well fingers crossed.....

engine not revving past 3000 is due to the ecu being in limp home mode normally mate. i hope the new cat srts it out though
