Anybody got any thoughts on the mondeo ?/focus 2.0/2.2 tdci
as I understand use psi bottom end + ford head

just a thought :
seen a thread that suggested the high pressure fuel regulator could be the problem ?

I've sealed the crack in the intercooler and fitted an other air pressure sensor, disconnected the maf sensor for a while , but the same!
noticed when it happens , if I pump the throttle the power slowly comes back

the intercooler has been getting worse for about 2 yrs ?
there is air bubbling out at the bottom !!
they are about £70 + on e-bay, been trying to find one a bit cheaper!

had car in garage ,after checking round he blew out the air pressure sensor on the top of the intercooler, its cleared the engine management light. its most likely being caused by the intercooler being blowing for a while and blocked the sensor a bit? will run it to work this week and see how it goe...

Still using mine, daily .my second 406 , 1st one 6 yrs and this one 10 yrs ,it's a Y reg 110 with 180k. Still pulls really well. Going to upgrade shorty but still keep the 406

anybody had one of these ?
the pug 508, looks , full of kit , complicated ! french electrics !!

had another go at locating turbo vac pipe, jacked the car up as far as I could , had a look at a few diagrams , can get one hand in to locate turbo end but don't feel I would have the hand strength to feed the new pipe back on ( must be my 64yrs age). :frown: :frown: will see how it goes with the ne...

yes got some vac pipe , but only replaced short bit nr pump.

had to jack the car up because I dropped the old solenoid down the back of the engine
while it was jacked up I tried to see where the vac pipe was connect to the turbo to no avail will have to get a diagram to give details

problem started again !
just fitted new solenoid . see if that works ?

Nice one ! seems to work well
