Rough idle, no power and fuel coming out the exhaust

Postby DaFunk » Fri Nov 04, 2016 9:19 pm

Hey everyone!

Long time reader, first time poster. Hoping someone can shed some light on the following issue ive been having.

Firstly, I just had the clutch fork, radiator and speedo sensor replaced by my mechanic, now since they have done that, Ive been experiencing a really rough idle, lack of power and intermittent power, where if I try to accelerate, it coughs and splutters with little power and fuel exiting the exhaust.

The check engine light isnt on, and ive checked for errors from the computer, but its not reporting any. Any ideas what would be the cause of this? Could the mechanic have caused this as it was running 100% fine before they did any work on it.

Thanks!

Was this issue sorted? How was the fuel coming from the exhaust seen? Was it a fuel-y smell, smoke, or liquid?
