. Stopped at the service centre about half an hour later. I had a new set of plugs (BP7ES), figured the break in plugs were bad and they were not correct (R6). Changed the plugs, fired right up and came back to life.
Ran great for about another hour until I stopped at the next toll booth. As I pulled away the same problem. Continued to drive the next 2 hours with reduced power just to get to our hotel. Also the temp was getting dangerously high as we pulled off of our exit. As we pulled off the car completely died and would not restart. The fuel was kind of low so I immediatly thought crud in the tank. Went and got a container of gas poured it in gave the car a good shake. Fired right up and ran fine to our hotel about a mile away.
So clearly we had to find a shop in the morning that would drain the tank and clean out the screen to be ready in time for the "Tour de Marque" for 10:30, even though I had previously done this myself.
