Hi thankyou for accepting me to the Group, I am in NSW Australia , I have read alot of posts and replys here.
I own a 1997 Ford Transit Van 2.5 Diesel manual
Rego papers put the Model down as a TRANS96B
VIN WFOLXXBDVLVD05809
I bought the Van off an elderly man and it has sat in a shed for 5yrs she is a decked out camper , I bought the Van Knowing it had its problems being, Engine Managment light comes on and goes into Limp Mode, hence why it sat in shed for 5 years.
Drives great till , randomly Engine Light Comes On and she goes into Limp Mode ,
if i turn key off and start her again engine light goes off and drives great again
or i can be driving and engine light can randomly go off on its own too, either way randomly goes on and or off could be after 10ks or 20 or more ks.
Engine cuts out and stops if engine light ON if i come to stop lights or t intersection ,
if i turn key on and start engine to proceed to drive engine light goes off again. and drives great again.
When i turn key on and start engine any day i go out to start the van, engine light not on till i drive 10,20, 50ks again.
Codes shown when read by mechanic are
1. P1173 Rotor Calibration Fault
2. P1180 Fuel Delivery System Malfunction - Low
3. P0105
4. P1190 Calibration Resistor Out Of Range
5. P1182

I live in the bush and i would love to get the Van going properly so i can take abit of time to go places for a change.
Like a say untill the engine light comes on randomly she drives great
any input would be appreciated
Also parts seem to be obsolite for this model any advise on any other year models that would be compatable for spare parts for my 1997 like whole pedal assembly units etc.
Thankyou for your time , i just want to be a camper under beautiful trees etc lol im starting to wonder if that will ever happen, i go out each day start the van up sit in her and dream of going places so here is Hopeing lol
