Hi everyone
2 mouths ago my dad bought a 2010 Land Rover LR4 V6
It did just 59000 kilos, so its should be close to new.
The car ran smoothly until today when suddenly it started cutting and sometimes the engine dies, and when I try to start it sometimes it starts and sometimes it keeps trying to start
And when I step on the throttle to the max it goes, but barley.
I tried turnning it off for like 5 mins and when I started the engine and it ran nicely for about 7 mins then it started cutting again.
Is it the fuel? cuz here in Yemen we have a low quality fuel and (with time) it fills the engines with a lot of black grime.
Or is it the type of the fuel cuz 6 days ago I filled the car with fuel that was red, and just yesterday I filled it with fuel that had water's color ( no color I guess ). And the difference between them is that the fuel that has no color gets consumed faster than the red fuel, or that's what I heard people saying.
I'm really worried please help me with helpful opinions.
Oh right. 1 of my friends told me to find a LONG highway and drive the car as fast as I could with my foot ******* the throttle, he said that this would help in ( cleaning ) the fuel injection parts inside the engine??
Should I listen to him or should I just take it to a mechanic? but first please tell me is engine in a BAD BAD condition? or is a simple issue? Thanks in advance.
