Welcome to the forum, sorry to hear about your woes. If you could give us some more info that would help, does the engine light stay on all the time or does it go out after 5 seconds after starting? Is it a lack of power throughout the rpm range or will it refuse to go over a certain rpm? If you let us know where you are there could be someone with an old ids2000 scanner nearby to diagnose it.
If all else fails the Bosch fuel pump (non electric ) can be fitted bypassing all the elecamatricky. I'm hopeful it won't have to come to that since you spent so much all ready.

Being this guy is a disabled pensioner lets hope it isn't a auto transit or no Bosch
Yea the engine light on dash should be on with the dash lights and then go off when the engine starts if it's either not coming on at all or staying on then It does require more investigation
Hopefully the bulb hasn't being removed to hide a fault (common enough) but first more info required as MFR said

Welcome aboard the transit forum ride Les
ok try this my fellow fly by wire friend
if you have a epic pump the fuel solinoid plunger is putting the pump ecu into limp mode
so you will need to replace the O ring on the electronic solinoid plunger assy
Easy job if ou hold your tounge the right way and follow the following instructions on the forum here

If this doesnt work possibly the Accelerator Micro switch assy sticking or not functioning correctly
hard to tell without as stated above posts a diagnostics light on dash ECU MIL stays on after van engine running
when you turn Engine off does the engine still stay on for a few secs after key turned off ?

Hi Les,

You mentioned you travelled 80k, you posted at 3:30 AM Uk time and the device Tapatalk says you use I've never heard of and a quick Google reveals you can get it from Telstra. I guess from all of that you're in Australia? If so I don't know if there's anyone here on the forums who has a scanner that can hook up to the van... But hopefully you won't need that

Hi Les, any other symptoms?
