Default 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.

do you honestly think this is the place to ask that question and get a serious answer considering 99% of every other post you make?

Sounds like the Fuel pump solenoid.

Quick bashh on WDS should tell the dealer what the problem is, if there is a fault stored.
