Get some proper diagnostics on it. Possibly a bad bit of track on the feedback pot. But the car shutting down from around 3000 RPM is pretty unusual.
Yeah but I think that fuel quantity can be pushed out of range by bad sensors. Once modulation out of range it'll cut out. Worth checking the lift pump if he hasn't already. Might be more than 1 thing.
The only thing that controls fuel quantity to that degree is the quantity servo. The ECU knows where it should be for power request RPM at any particular time. If the feedback says it is somewhere different than the ECU thinks it should be or communication is lost with the feedback pot telling the ECU that info the engine will shut down to avoid a runaway.
How did you change the CPS when you did it? Not by removing the bracket i hope.
If the CPS is damaged it has contacted one of the position pins. That usually only happens if someone has moved the bracket. A special tool is used to set bracket in correct place in relation to the pins. Can't see how you could damage a pin doing the clutch but stranger things have happened i suppose.
Don't know to be honest you will have to see what you have when you get it out.
Right guys I've fixed it tonight!!!!!!! Call me a bodger if you like but time and money are on my mind when it comes to replacing the flywheel. I removed the cps and measured the height of an intact lug using a vernier gauge. So knowing the size of the lug I set about welding a small tack onto.the flywheel in position of the broken lug. I then used a die grinder the file it back untill the same height as the others. I refitted the cps and hey presto she runs perfectly. This will keep me going untill I have the time to do it correctly. Thanks for all your advice guys much appreciated
