Hi I need help with a 2002 Ducato 2.8JTD. Engine dies intermittently, hot/cold, after a few hundy ks, or 2-3 times in as many ks. We have replaced rail pressure sensor, pressure reg, tank pump/gauge unit. DTC P0191, Diesel Pressure Test is the only code up. The other day the injection light came up and fuel gauge dropped (a few days after tank unit was replaced), so checked wiring. Thought fault was in the 4w plug behind air filter housing, so cleaned and checked that. Thought I'd simulate fault so pulled plug with eng running, obviously stopped, no DTC. Cranked, wouldn't log a DTC. Found that it logged the fault only if plug was discon at above 1200 revs. Also found that once this fault was created, there was no way the engine would restart after plug reconnected, if the key was turned off, straight on, and then cranked. We found the key had to remain OFF for 20-30 secs or so. Rechecked wiring to tank unit, replaced fuel pump relay, road tested with cell phone and tow rope on board. After 1.5 hrs mixed driving, I was decellerating from 130k when it died, DTC P0191. Did it again when decel from hard out in 2nd gear. My next thought is to wire a couple of warning lights to fuel pump input, and relay winding.
Has anyone had this fault before, or have a suggestion as to what it might be? Any help appreciated, thanks.
