Yeah mate replaced filter, pump , spark plugs , leads , coil. and still stalls. i was thinking blocked fuel line coz car dies while i drive and coughs and splutters, sounds like lack of fuel. thats my guess as i have change everything fuel filter , pump etc


was it giving you grief before you changed out all the parts or after?

Fuel pressure test to rule out the regulator.

just another update, checked my codes again and it gave me 47 . so im assuming crank angle sensor. today when i was leaving a friend place after driving around, i started the car and it was very groggy enough, it stalled after 5 secs. then didn't want to start for bout half hr, after i was checking everything. and then she starts. got home. left again 2 hrs later, and again didn't want to start. so did error check. got 12, and 47 should i disconnect battery for 30 sec to reset and test again... mind you tho i did that when i was leaving friends place, i disconnected battery for about a minute. so i should assume CAS? i changed my ECU just a minute ago.. if still stalls could it be the DFI or CAS? because i have read it could be both with error 47?
