was just dring along at 40mph when car decided to act like it was out of petrol and died, pulled over to side of road and tried to start back up as i knew i had petrol, nothing. starter motor would turn but not kick in.
i had a mini diagnostic on board so scanned it and 7 returned results:
fuel injector into cylinder 1-01249
fuel injector into cylinder 2-01250
fuel injector into cylinder 3-01251
fuel injector into cylinder 4-01252
Maf sensor-16486
Solenoid Valve for Boost Pressure Control-01262
and also something about oxygen lambor snsor but cant rember code number.
there were no codes stored before this happened!
I took the battery out and also the tray under the battery and found 4 wires connected to the chasis, i cleaned all these up. i also cleaned an earth on the rocker cover. the car worked fine for about 3 days then cut out again! i waited 5 mins and then worked again!!!
when the car does cut out, when you try to turn the engine over you only get the starter motor, you cant hear any prime or anything. if you wait a few mins then you hear it prime on second position and then it will kick in!
i have taken to garage and they couldnt find anything as it was intermitant. i did a full service today and the spark plugs were drenched in oil. i have also noticed the occasional back fire if i tap the accelerator. but i am running a straight through from the cat. do you think my revo has anything to do with this intermitant problem?
