Hi I was wondering if anyone may be able to help. I just got back from a trip which included travelling over the roughest road known to man. My AU series II 6 cyc ute is also lowered and a bit stiff. On my return home I noticed my fuel economy going through the roof and when next stoped noticed the car was rough idleling and with bugger all power. I checked all leads and there seems to be ignition to all pots. Could it be a sensor or fuel filter or maybe something else due to the excessive vibes? Any help much appriciated.

Wow fuel efficiency gone through the roof, thats awesome, I would have thought it would be your fuel consumption going through the roof, :p

Youre right I'm an idiot. Will re-rack the black box in my brain and see if that helps. - Fuel consumption high not economy.

You may have squashed the exhaust somewhere which could cause these symptoms.
