hi everyone i am hoping someone out there can help me with this problem.
i have a ultima 2.9 it was running spot on then out of the blue it stated playing up.
i can get it to start first turn of the key if i leave it over nght the rest of the time i am having to put my foot fully down on thotle, if i keep the cr at over 2000rpm it runs fine and drives spot on as sdoon as i take foot off the gas or stop or allow it to drop below the 2000rpm it cuts out and most of ther time wont start again for a while and will keep doing this 
if it helpsit is also an esate and auto box

bigian.
See if you can borrow a throttle potentiometer to temporarily substitute for yours,it only takes five minutes to swap over,little black plastic thing with two screws and a plug, on the back of the throttle shaft at the front of the engine,they are 40 odd quid from Ford !
