i know many of u think of a rodeo as an inferior car to your HQ HZ holdens etc but i would appreciate some ideas.
4ZE1 engine idles erratic and from about 100 kph up there is no power. tested fuel pressure etc all fine ECU says ignition system. have new leads, plugs, rotor. could it be the coil? or the pickup unit in the distributor?
BTW goes well when cold but when warmas up all hell breaks loose.
