heya,

I was just asked this question, and i feel i need further advice to answer this question properly.

My missus's mum, who is in Equador, has a 1994 surf, petrol, she isnt sure of the size of the engine (lol!), its manual, and recently had a new carby and clutch put in it.

Now the problem, eveytime she has to go up a hill, the car loses power, and she has to downshift, and sometimes the car stalls.

So i am thinking its not getting enough fuel at higher rpms, so a fuel pump issue?

Fire away guys

Peace

Arvin

Dont take this the wrong way but are you sure she isn't trying to tackle big hills in 5th gear?
