2005 transit common rail motor, just stops when driving

Your best off checking the codes again to see if it tells you what's going on. The ECU maybe stopping the injectors from firing if it's not happy about the readings from one of the sensors, like the fuel pressure.

You could also take the fuel filter off, cut it open and check it with a magnet to see if you can find any metal swarf. If you can then the injectors are probably clogged with swarf.

In march 2017 this 2005 had new pump new injector and has been running ok, until it started to miss fire, re two of the new injectors because the ohm reading were all different. start transit go to Rally , stay the night, start transit run of the blocks turn motor off. Restart motor and it missed fired , then stopped . I restarted it and it miss fired again. Now the engine will not start and is on the Back of a transportor of the the Mechanic. Please can any body have any ideas , just about to sell this thing. IT was a nice motorhome 2005 135 common rail motor.

1. Read error codes
2. Read fuel pressure on rail during starter work - it must be 350 bar +/-50 bar (5076 PSI +/- 725PSI). On idle 250 bar +/-50bar (3635PSI +/-725PSI); if pressure is besides margin of tolerance , PCM stop engine,
3. If fuel pressure is incorrect, replace IMV valve in high pressure pump. But first make sure fuel system is not airlocked - check overflow pipes between injectors and pump.
