Do you know what the definition of 'working' is for these ?
I mean it's old enough to pass mot's with the engine light on and the engine purrs. That suggests they must be doing something right so I could go with that except the loss of power and rattle. It really can't afford to lose any more power, there some small hills around here
Is it a working or broken thing or can they be on their way out for a while ?

The Jimny engine may be a planet-killer in terms of fuel consumption and CO2, but it does run extremely cleanly. I wouldn't be surprised that one with a slightly lazy O2 sensor could pass an MOT.

As said before it is worth getting the codes read then you actually know what it is doing or not.
