well about two weeks back I was having running problems with my focus cosworth and I really fort it was the 3 bar map censer that was at fault . Well I stuck at it doing tests
and iv got to the bottom of it . And I'm glad to say iv now sorted it and it cost a massive £15 it was the blue censor .
The car was spot on when cold but when it got hot that's when it started over fauling big time witch started me thinking. A bit of a pain to do as my setup is not standard and with having the WRC breath on made it very hard to get to but I did it and it's running spot on now
My saff was similar to the fault you had. It was ok doing 50 60 mph. As soon as I got into town traffic and the engine temp got hot the car would misfire and run like a bag of shit.
It did my head in as I would start it up from cold and it ran spot on . I would drive it down the lane and it ran spot on still then the moment I would give it some stick it would go sick . It was not till I got it back home and I fort I would have to send it in to be mapped.
So I come in the house for a cup of tea . Well 15 min had gone by I went back to the car and it started up spot on and drove spot on then it hit me that the water temp was low . So I did a bit of research and read up about this blue censer could do this so i popped into GGR as there only down the road from me £15 job done .
So all I can say to any one that has a fuelling
problem change this censer first as it could be fault and if it's not the problem then it was only £15
