So that's cutting out on the second and third runs of five..?
Ok quite a low mileage engine then. I'd say its looking most like injectors at the moment, we'll do a leak-off test on Sunday if you like.

Yeh that would be good thanks, it cut out on the third run I'm 2nd gear, and the second run in 3rd gear

Right, so it's not down to the fuel heating up then, in which case we can probably rule out lp pump for now...
I really must get PP2000 working lol.

Who's map is it on?
If it's only cutting out occasionally the pump is most likely on it's way out, I can stop that if you don't want to fit a new one.

Ok, you can either clean regulator/fit a new fuel pump (possibly injectors), or get dave to raise the limits at which the ECU shuts the engine off.
The first is the best solution but on some of the earlier ECUs (162, 163 1976) they tend to always have problems with cutting out unless these values are tweaked due the the way the ECU is set up from the factory.

No you probably have a 362 Ecu, the cutting out business was a ridiculous feature added, all the later cars now go to limp mode instead of cutting out as its so dangerous

I always thought that, imagine pulling out infront of somebody only to find peugeot programmed it to cut out, not a good plan at all!

Yeah, first discovered that in the outside lane on a busy motorway, not cool.
