Hi

Could you tell me if i am correct if the long term graph hits 30% when drving the car then its reporting fuel starvation someware?

I did install a cheap non ford fuel filter over a month ago when i did a service as the owner of the car before me had not had it changed for a while and it was in a bad way. Do you suggest i change the fuel filter for a ford one.

Not sure what you mean by 'Check you map-signal at wot. Should be close to 1 bar (14.5 psi).You can even check this signal with the engine off - also 14.5 psi' Could you explain what this is?

Chris

Fuel filter blocked, pump blocked or bad.

You don't have a MAF-sensor. There's no air mass pid (g/s).
You do have "Inlet manifold Absolule pressure" - therefor you have a map-sensor.
