Sassylass Neutral Newbie February 18, 2004 Share February 18, 2004 Hi brothers, any one can help me with this problem i'm facing??? My new Lancer pick-up speed is really slow. I have to ramp the accelerator at traffic light or at right/left filter lane... (for both 1st and 2nd gear) is it advisable to change the gear ratio? or the spark plug?? any advice?? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send it back and ask if they've got the correct engine inside. Rgds Paul Yong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaweed 1st Gear February 18, 2004 Share February 18, 2004 (edited) humm pai sei har... if yours is manual and you lost to a truck at traffic light....then hor...frankly speaking leh...think your driving skill got problem leh...if you floor your gas and drag 1st gear to redline(when the cutoff just kick in)...then change 2nd gear do the same...then 3rd gear do the same...if still lost to truck then consider sell your car and buy a truck liao lor.... not suan you leh...but just stating the fact Edited February 18, 2004 by Seaweed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2P2 Neutral Newbie February 18, 2004 Share February 18, 2004 agree on that.....if its CVT yeh maybe coz i drove the CVT before, really cxxk....but a manual 1.6, i dun think should behave this way ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
