No tune, Stock as, Boost gauge doesn't count! Standard 5ish P.S.I.

.9 I think, Just the off the shelf ford plugs.

Im checking the fuel pressure/ fuel quality tomorrow or wednesday.

Suspecting dirty or water in fuel or possible pump failure under load?

Will keep you posted.

I think the other half has gone to a dodgy servo...............

Fuel has an oily residue and doesn't evaporate like normal, Like diesel and is a little discoloured /cloudy.

Drained tank, cleaned and fresh fuel added along with injector cleaner additive.

Cleaned fuel pump pick up filter as well as the housing it sits in.

Fuel pressure is at 450kpa when under load @ 3psi. (all its making)

So fuel pump is strong and fresh fuel, I think the injectors may have clogged filters?

If not got a mate with a code reader to see......

So how is this done?

Is it a ford dealer thing or something I can do?

Car turning off while driving? TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) maybe?

I had this issue about 7 years ago when I bought my car and ford fixed it under warranty and now its come back

so I guessing its probably that...
