Hello everyone. My friend has bought a dud car and I'm trying to help him work out what is wrong with it. The car is a Kia Sportage 2000. The problem is that it only starts sometimes, other times it tries but never actually starts. When it does start it drives but at low speed the engine stalls and loses all power. When it starts, if you just sit there the engine starts struggling to keep going, even when stationary. The only other info I have that may be relevant is that when he bought it the seller said that the car had been idle for five months.
Can anyone help with this? I'll try to provide extra info if anyone has any questions?
Thanks.
