Hi, I was driving my Toyota Tazz 1300 to work. When I approached a hill, i dropped to third gear and was driving up. I noticed that car started to kick-back as the speed increased. The car got to about 80 km/n and it just kicked back.
Kick back - the car was struggling to go up the hill as the speed increased. At a single moment, ut felt like the car was going to switch off, but it kinda like jump started, as if when you roll the car to jump start it.
I noticed it again when the car attempted to climb another slight incline. My vehicle has been for its 105 000 service. It had the cam belt replaced.
I am not sure if this could be the cam belt or something else...
I need a solution...
Thanks.
It sounds like it is loosing spark somewhere on the ignition circuit. e.g HT leads, distributor cap, one or more spark plugs faulty. The above usually happens when the engine is taking more load than usual, like going up a hill and the r.p.m at about 1500 - 3000.Try it again in a lower gear 1st or 2nd with the motor r.p.m high, about 5000 revolutions per minute.
