any advice would be great but, my vit this morning started to loose power gradulary over a mile or so, started losing power going down the motor way so had to keep the revs up to keep up speed with the other nutters on the road then it just died and i had to pull over. i have checked the fuel pump and it is pumping fuel like its going out of fashion as i know the pumps tend to go, so without access to a pressure tester does anyone think it maybe the head gasket leaking or piston rings gone??
