runs and drives beautifully
it goes into to limp mode when engine warms up and i am unable to get anyone to rectify this minor problem.
I don't think AF spanners will help here.

I thought it was an abused Rover 75 to start with.

Oh & 'minor problem' means he's had the codes read & it's sodding expensive to fix.

Looks like that Buick vendor is excited because the last unrotten part of the car is indicating it is the 2nd 1958 Buick body built....Maybe the 2nd Limited 4 door Hardtop in Wilmington Delaware plant but it really doesn't matter now. It's fucked. Not many Limiteds here, though, I can think of only 2 other 4 doors.

I love these listings where somebody says "Have started to.....Zetec blahblah". Na, all you've done is torch the engine bay clean. You might as well have planned to convert it to run on Mountain Dew like the Arkansas Chug-a-bug, cos all that's happened is a fucked car.
