I have an escort cosworth 1992. When i drive the car at low reves it drives fine, when i put my foot to the floor it dies out. I changed the crank sencor, the throttol position sencor,map sencor,fuel pump,filter and preasure regulator. I don't know if my settingh are right on some of the electric components. Does anybody know what they should be? She is running on green injectors. Has anyone come across thuis problem?

 

CPS gap is 0.6mm-1.0mm, I would have a look at the PHASE sensor, wires to see if they have broken insulation on them.
Does it run ok otherwise, has it suddenly started doing it or was it gradual.
What leads and plugs do you have ?

Hi. Thanks for replying. The car starts first time, ticks over quite tidy but you can tell it's slightly not right on tick over. You go up the road with it on low revs, put your foot down and it dies out on you. This problem just seems to have started, it was missing slightly and just seems to have got worse as time goes on.I altered the throttol sencor, the revs went up to round about 1500, the power came back and went again. If i adjust it by hand now it makes no difference. The leads i put on is a secondhand set but the original type and is normal sparkeplugs in it. Thanks

 

Sounds like its blowing out the spark, i would go for plugs personay, if you take them out, check all the gaps and give them a good clean and it changes youv found it, buy a new set and your sorted. if not then youv not lost anything and its not cost you

 

Hi. Thanks for that i will try yhat on Monday. Do you know what size gaps they should be? Thanks. Regards

 

Im not sure if all plug gaps should be the same, i gap my 071`s to .6 tho
