hi folks
beating my merry way home tonight and suddenly my 110 300tdi strts running like a bag of hammers and chucking smoke out of the exhaust - it's just managing to idle - feels like its missing a cylinder. naturaly i pulled over and checked the oil - it's not lookng like the cylinder head / gasket and on later inspection the coolant level hasn't dropped either.
i'd more or less just filled up - could it be bad fuel? could it be air in the fuel?
i've had a look at the book of lies and it's a bit vague - any ideas? anyone else had this happen?
any pointers would be great
