Oh great and wise HDI Gurus...

Ok so today managed a 60+ mile round trip up hill and down dale, took it real steady and it only cut out once when i was on a flat and i tested it to see if it was hard acceleration that caused the issue and it was, i kept revs around 2k and managed 40mph which is ok i can still use the car :-)

Poodle - unfortunately yes i have let the fuel run a bit too low over the last couple of weeks :-( could this have caused an air lock or something? maybe i should bleed the system (hopefully its an easy job)..??

Stopped at the Peugeot dealership on my way home tonight and begged them to let me use Peugeot planet - they said sure no problem - but we have to charge you £45! Robbing b*stards, they did also suggest the same as everyone else - low pressure pump not keeping up with demand of high pressure system when hard acceleration is required and i should check my fuel filter for metal filings, if it aint that then its either the brown relay or the FPR or I have an air leak.

I suspect it isnt an air leak as surely this would make the engine cut out randomly or more frequently on lower revs?? My problem is localised to engine load and hard acceleration.

Will check my filter and replace as necessary, had a look at the brown relay and it looks like a ball ache to get at - thanks Peugeot for making these things really accessible
