hello,
I am recently starting to feel a decreasing power on my 240 '91with
310.000km on the counter.
This weekend I was pulling a small trailer (300kg's) and on small hills, I
had to go up in a lower gearing than I was used to. There was no wind.
Other than that the car runs fine, has no oil consumption, starts fine,
idles fine, no fault codes,etc...
I just feel that the car is "out of breath" quicker than it used to be.
what could be the cause of this. I hate to believe that the engine is at the
end of its life...It has always been treated perfectly.
Any idea's??

thanks guys!

Compression loss?
 
no I don't thinks so, but I'll check it anyway.
If the car doesn't have to pull it rans perfectly. I'll also check the cat.
Thanks!!
