hey guys i have been on here the last couple days and got some advice just want to make sure i am still on track. ok so the landy would start and tick over but could not accelerate and had engine management light on. i was told that i should replace the throttle position sensor which i have coming on Wednesday. however i had oil in my ecu connector so i cleaned both ends of the connector. i also opened it up and there was no oil inside. when i put it back together it started an let me drive 2 miles or so and died again. now it will let me start and dies after a shortwhile. does this still sound like the throttle position sensor or something else.

thanks

change the injector loom to the ecu, thats what the oil is tracking down, rules out a lot of potential faults

the injector loom was replaced six months ago. i am assuming that the oil i found is just what was left on the wires

But when it was replaced was it sealed at all. Otherwise it could be deja vue all over again.

i am unsure. the all the garage tol me was that they changed the injectors and the loom

the best check/double ckeck is to read the fault codes...then you'll know for sure

that runs a bit then dies symptom seems like pump failure ...but the MIL has a code stored "behind" it
