Gutless 100 series

Post by toaddog »

I have just returned from doing a tour around the cape visiting all of the police stations.

Was given a base model 100 diesel. Could not believe how slow it was compared to my 80 diesel.

A guy I knew on the Gold Coast was not impressed with the power from his 100 when he up traded his 80.
Later when getting a service done he mentioned low power to the service guy. After checking it, they found it was not getting full throttle :?
he reckons it felt like they turboed it :D :D
cheers
