5ltr misses when first started

[vrcalais5ltr]

hey all
just noticed this morning that if i dont let my car warm up for a few minutes before trying to drive it wont accelerate at a moderate rate it misses and stutters. what could be causing this?

[greenfoam]

General bad heath . Could be leaking injectors, dodgy fuel system, something like that. Depends how long since you gave it some love

mines doing the same thing! but only on petrol, am gonna change fuel filter first, possibly fuel pressure to inectors? ie fuel pump or blocked filters??>?

rooboy, if you have a dual fuel it will be tuned for optimum performance on either gas or petrol, it cant be both. The engines were never designed to run gas from the factory, so if you tune it to run gas smoothly, its not going to run petrol very well anymore.
