My 97 DI is running rough right now. I even stopped and looked at a big 1983 4 door Lincoln Mark VI today to give the Rover a rest for a while.

Immaculate body, 80K original owner was the father of a family that owns a small chain of appliance stores locally.

He had dropped his price from 3 grand to 2500. I loolked it over breifly, asked if 2 grand would get it. He hesitated and said he would have to check with his brothers due to it being an estate sale, but most likely they would accept 2 grand.

I will see what happens next.

 

Cool.

 

Whats wrong with the Rover?

 

IT STUMBLES REALLY BAD! Kind of smells like gasoline odor. Possibly exhaust valves may be sticking or? Poor milage, sometimes runs strong then all of a sudden really rough. Not blowing any smoke or spewing anything.

Think I will go ahead and order new Kingsbourne wires and guides. But I need a solid ride for the wife and grandkids. I have the Rover as a two -seater junk hauler right now.

WaNT TO GET IT BACK TO SMOOTH AGAIN, JUST FRUSTRATED WITH IT FOR NOW.
