please can any one help me,sat night car started ,missing amnd kangarooing,engine will not pick up,and it is kicking out black smoke,also,every now and then it will pick up and go allright,then die its also ,pressurerising the cooling system rather quickly,
but not over heating ,i dont think i have a melt down prob as it picks up ok
it seem s like fuel starvation,i have fitted a new fuel pump as i thought this was the problem,its the same,any ideas as i am thinking along the lines of burning it out any help would be appreciated,as i am sick of biking to work

 

to the above problem i have been told it could be a coolant temp sensor,for the ecu and the car is over fueling ,and flooding the engine does this sound right to any one
cheers phil

 

if it is a escort rs turbo might be the metering head

 

def sounds like overfuelling to me try unplugging the electrical connection of the cold start injector on back of inlet manifold if this helps it's prob the temp sensor for the fuel computer. if your car acts ok when cold but worse when warm then this is likely to be the problem.
