hi all, im new here and hope you can help.
i bought an old 1999 1.8 petrol freelander, seemed like a great vehicle for hauling kids and dogs about. starts fine every time, drives great, then... after about 20 miles, it loses power, feels like a fuel blockage, it will continue to move at about 2000 revs (35mph) but will judder and hold back if you try to accelerate. Ive had the fuel pump changed, the fuel filter flushed and the petrol tank drained and flushed.. drove fine for about 45 miles then the same thing. If you leave it for 5 - 10 mins its fine for another 10 miles then loss of power....

Any ideas????

Ordinarily I'd say petrol, matches, go figure ;)
