Petrol Engine Info
On petrol engine variants with K4M engine, if you
suffer from poor cold start/warm up and stalling: remove the motorised
throttle body and clean the unit with carburettor cleaner. Be sure to
remove all traces of carbon from the throttle disc and the venturi
housing. Refit the housing and all should now be well.
If the engine cranks but fails to start it is usually
the TDC sensor, there is a modified sensor and section of loom
available.
Engine misfires: if your engine suddenly loses power
and sounds like it is running on three cylinders, along with lighting up
the MIL lamp. You have a defective ignition coil. Replace all four coils
at the same time to avoid a repeat performance in a few weeks time.
The original coils had a manufacturing defect and some may still
be out there.
there's a few tips from my own experiences of owning a
2002 Trekka 1.6 petrol.
