My heap of about to be scrapped junk of a ZX has just left me stranded on the A14 near Cambridge! No idea at all what's wrong with it, just started coffin, spluttering, misfiring and cutting out! Have checked all connections under the bonnet and it's not overheating and I've got a 5 yr old in the car aswell!

I'm really pissed off with this car at the minute coz it's just one thing after another!

 

Any ideas? Anyone In Cambridge?

 

Paul the fuming!

Did you get it sorted guys?

 

No, he was on the back of a low loader off up north. I gave him a PTU and a MAF so when at Corley he could try and fix while waiting for the next truck to take him further north.

Fantastic club spirit!! Very glad to see this.

 

From the little I know (but from experience) it did sound like the PTU might be the culprit. Hope it's an easy fix...sounds like a pain to get to!

Finally got home at 5.55am after being on the back of 5 low loaders! Apparently it's the rule now. If they go out of area it has to be on a tacho graph and the drivers had been working all day. I used brittania rescue and got to say they were ultra efficient as the truck was always already there waiting for us at each swap over.

Thanks to every body who helped on the site aswell especially mark.

I'm now going to rip the front of the car off in the start of its major service and overhaul

UPDATE, still no wiser as too the problem, swapped MAF and PTU but no difference. There was no chance of getting at the PTU last night as I've had to remove the front bumper and the ns headlight, but the wiring on the extension is a total bodge up and I'm loosing oil sumwere aswell, possibly from oil cooler rad as it's getting sucked through the radiator and covering everything so a re wire and a good degrease is first on the cards and then a full service with plugs and timing belt etc and compression testing
