I recently noticed that my Ford Galaxy has started to have a rough acceleration. It feels like the engine is struggling when I try to speed up. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
ReplyHi John, this could be caused by a few different things. One possible issue could be a clogged fuel filter, which can restrict the flow of fuel to the engine and cause rough acceleration. I recommend getting your fuel filter checked and replaced if necessary.
John, another potential issue could be a dirty air filter, which can limit the amount of air that reaches the engine and affect its performance. I suggest checking and cleaning or replacing your air filter to see if that improves your acceleration.
Hi John, a faulty ignition coil can also cause rough acceleration. The ignition coil is responsible for converting the battery's low voltage into the thousands of volts needed to create an electric spark in the spark plugs. A worn or damaged coil can result in uneven acceleration. I recommend getting your ignition coil checked and replaced if needed.
