I think she's dead..or dying. I do'nt know if this has had any effect on the problem but last week i changed my panel filter for a large K&N and one of those small bonnet scoops.

Anyway left the car a station this morning and it was running fine, got back tonight started it up, left it ticking over for 5 mins, set off up the bypass at 40mhp till i got to the roundabout and it was warm.

I then pulled out to overtake a wagon and wack it was like i hit a brick wall. I thought it was the fuel cut but it was doing it every gear. There was also a strange clicking noise coming from the drivers side at the same time.

Now it is running like its on 3 cylinders the whole car is shaking and it has no power. There is also a strange noise from the exhaust as though its dropped a valve(just a guess)

One other thing i forgot to add it was parked up hill and its been raining all day, could water have got into the filter.

This is the last straw really as i have just spent neally 900 quid on a new clutch when that failed last month. Her in doors says no more if it dead it goes please help

When I had my classic I had a small scoop and putting my foot down it did what you said and when I got home had a look round and could not see anything wrong. I had a 57i K&N Induction Kit below the little scoop. I think it had been raining as well. Anyway I took it off and all was well. I think it was the rain that must have created problems.

Hope from what your saying it is the same thing.

Put the stock bonnet blank back in place instead of the scoop!
Change one thing at a time.
