1.9 aaz problem

Post by hammerhead »

Hello

I have a t25 syncro with a 1.9 AAZ, whilst driving today it started to judder as in it felt like the was no fuel getting through, it would keep going then no response on the throttle, then start going again. When travelling 50 to 60 all of a sudden it would also lose power until I took my foot off the throttle then it would drive again then be ok for a while then do it again.

Anybody have any idea what this could be? Any info appreciated.
Thanks

Speak the blindingly obvious, replaced fuel filter recently? Also Drained water trap in the filter? Fuel filler neck all good? :ok

Thanks for the replies.

The fuel filter was changed less than two months ago, have also tried draining it but nothing came out, for what it costs I'll try a new fuel filter.

Check the banjo on the fuel filter inlet isn't blocked also. I stuttered to a halt, changed the fuel filter, still no go then took off the banjo and it was completely blocked.

Ok...I have checked the banjo and fitted a new fuel filter and it has almost stopped the problem, it is still doing it but not so often.
Thanks for your input, it makes it easier owning one of these with this forum.

Ok chaps, it turns out that it was a loose connection on the fuel pump, have put a nice new shinny connector on and now runs like a dream.
