Stalling and performance issues.

Hi guys, I had my fiesta for quite some time now and also tried fixing these issues but I cannot seem to find a solution to them.

The car tends to stall at low revs and also cuts out on power when it comes to pressing the accelerator. 

P0490 EGR A Control circuit High

P0489 EGR A Control circuit low

P042F A control Stuck closed

P0087 Fuel fail System pressure too low

I changed the fuel filter and clutch recently to make up for other issues.

Now I am thinking of giving the EGR a clean and changing the fuel pressure sensor.

Please let me know if you have any advice on the matter of fixing these faults. 

 

Thank you in advance.

    The EGR will most likely need replacement, not cleaning.

    I'd fix the EGR fault first, as the low fuel pressure code might be triggered by the engine cutting out, rather than being the cause of it.

    Agreed, don't buy a cheap copy EGR valve
