I am having problems when it is going over the hill. It is very slow and if I have person in there sometimes they have to get out and walk. Whenever the it goes on the machine and all the codes are deleted it revs out okay. After a few hours it goes back to the problem. The machine is now showing that is is not transmission or coil issue it is saying it is an engine problem. It also has an oil leak from putting in a new transmission and changing the crank case. I need some help now. Thank you.

That vehicle was not available in the US, but it sounds like you need a good shop.
Erasing the codes will not repair a problem in most cases. It is possible that while changing the transmission a wire was pinched or damaged and is causing a problem. It is also possible it is totally un-related. Have it scanned to get all of the codes and post the actual codes here and we will try to help.
