Just been for a run 15 miles and no limp biscuit :D don't know what's more stress full, when it was always in limp or now waiting for limp :lol: That said I have just pushed it on the road where it used to cut out 5/6 times, up hill in 5th foot down and other than the shaking from the unbalanced wheel it took off like a scolded cat :wink: Just got to address the other issues, abs sensor left front wheel, brakes and getting the wheels balanced.

I have to say it's a right fook up that the egg heads at Ford or (delphi) whatever, decided in their indicate wisdom that causing the engine to cut out if a certain fault develops, is more important than human safety :shock:
And more importantly you don't want to be cutting out left right and centre or the feds will be giving you random speeding tickets :?
