Car wouldn't run properly next day. Now I have drained fuel, car will start but has no throttle and will only run for few seconds. Is this a type of limp mode ? please any advice would be appreciated Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Not sure what the outcome was but the car was not running very well when she got it to one of the local mechanics by all accounts

Will start and idle for few seconds then dies . I have Walbro 460, 725 Bosch injectors, Turbosmart Fuel reg and rail adaptor. Fuel pressure originally was set at 58.5 no vac but now is under 20Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Other thing would be a failed filter, ie the element getting damaged (which is why k believe there are ethanol specific filters available?)The tune compensation could be way out too due to the fact you need about 35% more ethanol to get stoach tune. And could also be a poisoned o2 sensor as well
