Sounds like sticking secondaries - see fordmondeo.org for details ..........

 

hi cheers edd but im still nt sure wht the secondarys are culd that be why there is a real bad smell of fuel from the exhaust cheers

 

I had a similar problem with an ST-24 a few years ago and it was the secondaries - if you search on the site I suggested there used to be pictures and a step by step guide to rectifying the issue.

Sticking secondaries??

 

sounds like secondrys not opening, could be sticking for the control box (iirc) that has motor to open them not working due to heat sink.

 

And again, Sounds like Sticking secondaries

 

OR, from memory I think it could also be due to the Inlet Manifold Runner Control unit failing due to conducted heat - again see the above website for details.

 

Have a look here -
