Whats wrong with my Transit Connect?
Driving along fine when all of a sudden the engine splutters and I lose all power. The engine still seems to tick over fine but it wont rev at all. AA man checked the throttle cable but it was fine, so its a problem with the engine. Any guesses on what it could be.
My baby is currently with ford. Should hear from them tomorrow hopefully.
Its only a 06 Reg
Ford
Fix Or Repair Daily
Should have got a VW caddy

I think the problem is to do with the driver being a complete and utter retard

Of course it's because it's not an Audi.

Sounds like the Fuel pump solenoid.
Quick bashh on WDS should tell the dealer what the problem is, if there is a fault stored.

"What is wrong with my Transit?"
The thing that is wrong with your transit is that its a ford.
