Hi Everyone,
Hoping I can get some ideas for diagnosing and fixing this.
1hd-ft engine
Went through a mud-puddle today and then lost all engine power. The best way to describe is that I flooring them gas pedal and get no response. If the vehicle is facing uphill, the only way to get it moving is in low gear. If it’s on a flat surface, it will very very slowly accelerate and rev up until the turbo finally spools up.
This is only in gear. At idle the engine revs up without issues and at top rpm (4000) I get around 4 psi boost.
I checked vacuum hoses and they are all plugged in.
The transmission kick down cable seems quite loose and I tried to tighten it - moved the adjustment but by about 3/4” forward but I don’t think it made a difference.
I am currently limping home
Update: glow plug light also came on (I know it has an air heater rather than glow plugs)
