Hi there! I've just replaced and conditioned all the necessary parts needed to maintain the engine of this car, coz it's been stucked for a year in a garage. I've chavne all the filters, camshafts, plugs and fuel sysstems. Recently when I stepped on the gas whilst runnning there's a rough almost vibrating feel whilst accelerating, it's not smooth. There's also vibration in the engine that you'll also feel it inside the car, although I just replaced the engine support. I'm gonna bring it to another mechanic to check out the car, but any suggestion and advices will be so much appreciated, thanks!

I thought the 206E was a SOHC not a DOHC and I'd say a new camshaft is a bit of an expense - did you have problems with valves not closing/opening properly? Did you buy a new or reconditioned camshaft(s)?
I guess you may have problems with fuel supply actually - when you put your foot down something is clogging the fuel filter or injectors and causing fuel starvation...
