Hi all, i have a 09 transit 2.4 that starts missing between 1500-2000 revs. I have changed fuel filter (no effect), brought to my local garage and they deleted 3 fault codes:eek: which they didn't know what they meant. Codes were p251a00, p02a400, p029c00. She is idling fine and has plenty of power just misses at these…

Hi all, i have a 09 transit 2.4 that starts missing between 1500-2000 revs. I have changed fuel filter (no effect), brought to my local garage and they deleted 3 fault codes:eek: which they didn't know what they meant. Codes were p251a00, p02a400, p029c00. She is idling fine and has plenty of power just misses at these peak times. Economy has completely dropped also:(. Brought it to main dealer and they plugged it in, no faults listed. They then drove it and said she was fine. I asked for a mechanic to sit in while i drove it and lone behold spluttered its way along the road, he said we would drive it hard for fault finding so that's why they didn't notice it. They then ran laptop from engine and drove her, she went from 50 bar fuel pressure up to 100bar @ 1500revs then up to 150bar@2000revs. They couldn't say specifically what was wrong as she showed no code. Also she didn't at any stage show a fault on the dash. They changed 2 pressure valves one on fuel pump and one on the back of the injector rail. €400 later still not fixed can anyone PLEASE help me out as i don't want to break down or even cause more damage by driving her. Many thanks in advance. Mr.L.
