Hey guys and girls, After servicing my soarer V8 the other day, just the regular oil change and oil filter. Driving it for around 10 minutes the car had suddenly struggled to perform. It wouldn't rev properly and sounded like the car was going to die. Taking it home my car would struggle to go past 3000 revs and would disappear on the dash board and give the charging malfunction sometimes when parked. I had just done the power steering fix and new alternator 3 months ago. please help

I used 5W50 mobil oil after the guy at Repco suggested it to put in my soarer V8. Now it is running so bad was this oil ok or not? I am going to post a video of the engine to see if anyone can help with the problems i am having.
i put 4 to 5 litres in. the alternator was fixed a few months ago but i can get it checked out again. The car has just got worse with the vibrations will not so the revs on the dash. i am going to check coils and leads tomorrow.

Joseph if you took the AFM off and car didn't run any different I would be changing the AFM or see if you can get one from a mate to try . My car will just run without the AFM plugged in.
