This is a strange problem on my 2007 Transit MK7.
The clutch master cylinder plastic coupler broke off all the sudden a few days ago and I ve had to drive the van home on second gear. I bought another master cylinder from Euro car parts (LUV) and replaced it the next day. Clutch works fine now but another strange problem appeared immediately after changing the master cylinder... The van starts and idles fine. Ones I start driving for a few seconds it loses power and it is like getting no fuel until I release completely the throttle for an instant. Then it goes for another few seconds and again the same stalling...release the pedal momentarily and then goes again for another few seconds. So I am driving now releasing the accelerator pedal every few seconds to keep on going. I passed by Ford and the lady at the service desk (who knows nothing about mechanics) said that she could book it in (in 3 WEEKS since they were very busy), then run diagnostics which will cost anywhere between 65 and 130 quid and then they would call me and tell me what the additional repair cost would be!!!! I run out of there obviously. I thought that it possibly got de-tuned since I had to rev it while driving on second gear when the clutch broke. I thought that it possibly needs resetting. I also thought that the accelerator pedal sensor could be playing-up but then again I never touched this side of the pedals when I was replacing the clutch master cylinder. I only backed-off the nut a bit to pull the clutch bedal a little to the left in order to hook-up the master cylinder to it and then re-tightened it.
I thought to ask if anyone had experienced this kind of problem or ant transit wiz here and knows the remedy before I buy a code reader/reset program or a new accelerator pedal/sensor.
Your replies will be appreciated.
