Ford Focus/Style, cutting out
The car is a 2008 plate 1.6 petrol. Going to try to keep it short but give you as much info as possible.
Whilst driving it will cut out, not all the time, if coasting, mainly in 3rd I've noticed. It also cuts out for instance if I'm turning at a junction, so foot of the gas, foot on clutch to change gear.
I've changed cam shaft sensor cos I thought it may be that after having cam belt changed. I also found 2 splits in a pipe, sorry don't know what it's called, it's about half inch in diameter and bout 3quarters of a foot long. Replaced it and it wasn't that.
I've rigged diagnostic machine up to it, but no fault codes.
If sat idling for about 3 minutes, engine warning light comes on, drive off and it goes out.
I'm thinking it's fuel, maybe filter, or air related.
Also, not all the time it slightly revs itself when I start it. It doesn't sound right when it's ticking over either.
Sorry bout the lack of technical info, I'm no expert but I'll have a go.
