The Heat gauge of my Isuzu KB 240LE is not going up and when I'm driving the amount of power has immensely reduced when the van is moving. It does not acceleration as much and cannot the 100 km/hr mark. I have changed the spark plugs and Lead cables but still not help. The manifault gasket has also been changed and there are no leaks on the exhaust pipe.

Does it idle smoothly? It could be a timing belt issue. Also have you checked or changed the fuel filter and air filters?

Thank you for your response. I re-visited the "coil", i.E the slots where the lead cables are plugged before plugging on the spark plugs. I had mis-arranged Gear 4 cable and Gear 2&3. I simply arranged them appropriately and the van is up & running. I will, of course, change the fuel filter.

Regards.
