Thelma is not well. Been loosing power at the top end for the past few trips, she is out of wind before we reach the top of an incline and hills are third gear crawls. Changed oil and air, fuel and oil filters. Improved but 'Houston we have a problem'. Booked into see her doc today and will try and resolve whats up.

Good luck mate - hope its not the injector pump!

have a look at the i/cooler hoses clamps might be loose or hoses might be split

Thanks guys for your concern. Decided to go with a fuel cleaner on Monday, just did 2,000 kms and no change to condition. Will leave her with her trusted 'godfather' and see what he can find. He wants to start at the fuel pump in the tank (if she has one) and work forward, taking a look at hoses and lines as he goes. Also changing seals around the injectors (possible source of oil leak) while he has the bonnet up. Will keep you posted.
