Title: Strange throttle response
Post by: cdbdiis on 17 May 2009, 11:16:06
I have temporarily taken my 2.5TD estate car off of the road but have continued to run the engine at regular intervals.
A couple of weeks ago I left it ticking over but it just kind of petered out and died, suspecting a low fuel level I put in about 20 litres and it eventually started up again, but now the throttle is not working properly, sometimes it will rev as normal other times there is nothing and then after about 5 seconds it will either very slowly pick up or die completely.
The battery has been off to re-charge.
I have done the paper clip test and the two codes read were:

49 heater plugs general
92 cruise control. My car does not have cruise control  :o

I can see it would be possible to confuse the codes so have checked and double checked. They are correct.
An odd gurgling noise can be heard from the rear of the car when the engine dies, I think it is coming from the fuel tank.
All of the injector bleed off braided pipes are perished and weeping.
Can anyone help ?
