    Hi Fordies, still trying to overcome the hiccups in my XF EFI engine in my XC. Starts immediately hot or cold and runs beautifully until I step on the gas from a standstill in first gear. Engine responds immediately then jerks until I ease off the pedal. Slip it into second gear and run through the other gears and it runs smoothly anywhere . Stop and take off and under load in first it coughs and jerks until I ease and get going and all ok. Usually smooth as silk. Thanks for your suggestions and tomorrow, Sunday, I'm checking and cleaning out all fuel and air intale lines, replacing fuel filters, plugs and leads and checking the regulator on the fuel rail. After that I haven't a clue. Any more suggestions would be amazing. 

    Cheers SC

    Hi gang,

    Have a problem with my XC. Engine runs smoothly on level ground or down hill but going up a steep incline it cuts out. Back on level ground it runs fine. Loose wire somewhere, lump of something in the fuel line, relay....I'm baffled. Anyone have any ideas?

    Cheers,

      Check fuel regulator on fuel rail might be on its way out due to relying on vacuum manifold sinse it only does under acceleration it seems. Also check vacuum line to it is not cracked either  etc.
