Received a call from Dad that Baby is behaving abnormally today. Engine keeps dying off. Went down to collect it & quickly bring to my usual mechanic for checkup.
The Vaccum reading is abnormal. It's lower than normal, 0.2 instead of the usual 0.4, meaning there is a lost of pressure in the throttle body. The drive was bad & along the way, the engine is very sluggish, there's no power during pickup. Rpm drop til very low & Baby vibrated everytime when moving off frm standstil. Kenna horned once by a lorry cos the engine stalled while accelerating.
In my mind, I've prepared for the worst. I was thinkin could it be the fuel pump problem or choked fuel filter or dirty idling valve. It was already 6+pm when I reached sin ming.
After a quick diagnose, it's actually the air inlet rubber tubing at the throttle body that has burst, juz replace it can liao. Engine is back to normal now. I sigh with a big relief.
