I put the clutch in and revved it a bit and it seemed fine, I drove around for a while and all seemed good, but then it happened again.
I didn't notice it again for about another week, when it happened while just accelerating up a road.
I haven't noticed it since.

On all cases I wasn't accelerating hard.

My Patrol has a Dawes valve set to 15 PSI.
The engine was reconditioned about a year and a half ago and had a new fuel pump installed.

Does any one have any idea what could cause this?

Thanks,

Lucas
The mechanic looked at the car today and found that the MAF was quite dusty, so he gave that a clean.
The fuel filter had quite a bit of water in the separator so he replaced that.
One of the hoses near the turbo was leaking a bit of oil. It was pushed back on and tightened,

He took it for a drive and it seemed fine, and i did as well. It seems to start a bit faster and have slightly more power now.

I will need to tow a trailer full of tiles and concrete in the coming days so that will really test whether this fixes the issue or not.

I will update if there are any further issues,

Thanks everyone for your help!!
This is the first time I have used this forum, and I will definitely be back!
