Subject:Lack of power on my 87 Syncro
From:Chris McBrayne

Guys,
     Wonder if any of you can shed any light on this problem - Have got an
'87 Syncro which by some quirk of fate has the earlier 1.9 DG series
carburettor engine, problem is that there is a distinct lack of power
particularly uphill its the same as driving my old 50HP 73 bay.  Have
checked all the vacuum hoses OK and set the timing up spot on to the timing
mark  but still no joy - any ideas?  I should point out that the van is
European spec probably because the van and I live in England

Cheers

Chris and Syndy (Syncro)
