if my valve is knackered will i loose power cos mine like a snail at min, dont even think about hills
but when i have to go up ne you have to floor the thing to go 20 mph then its holding back all the time and cuts out if you ease off the gas ,
some times does this on flat also if trying to get bit of speed up, she seems to be holding back then cuts out but starts back    up no problem , ive dont the filter and oil change but seems to be getting worse?

shall i try removing the egr, seen a kit on e bay that removes it totally with 2 plates,

getting worried about her now she needs some help

[spacecadet]

you can get a blanking plate from the club shop(£5 i think)
just block the tube and see if it makes any difference first.
have you changed the air filter?
you could also check the pipes to the intercooler as if split or loose can make a difference to power.

i changed the air filter but it dont have the metal like surround on it and it makes a scking sound??????
i checked the pipes by holding them and reving and i cant squeese them so think they ok

[hillsandruts]

sounds like a turbo problem. Mass air intake, or the turbine might be buggered. could explain a gutless td engine.

Unless you're seeing clouds of black smoke while it's struggling (EGR) I'd put money on it being your fuel filter blocking up and starving the pump.  When was it last changed?

[Fostlongstrider]

Read the dates mate that Deli of Richie's has been long broken for spares.
