Hi i just been offered a Peugeot 306 TD 1.8 which has had an engine replacement, the owner took it in for MOT and it failed because of dark smoke coming out of the exhaust.
I have spoke with the owner and she says that the car drives and she had driven it 25 miles but when she hits a hill the car looses power, it doesnt stall, just looses power.
i have reserched online and i found it could be the air filters blocked, but it could be other things, so my question is what should i look/listen for when i go and view the car tomorrow to further determine the problem?
