Terrano 3D cuts out

Chopperman · 08-01-2015, 16:53

I have just bought a 2002 Terrano 3D. It had a new tank which we believe the garage initially put petrol in as the fuel did not smell of petrol.

The engine cuts out at odd times and need to be reset with with a Sealy ECU reader which comes up with the fault as being the crank pulley

Any suggestions

When you say "Reset " do you mean clear the fault codes ?
To reset the ECU you just have to disconnect the battery over night and it will forget all stored info and start learning again from new.

does this random thing happen only when the engine is warm?

if so, CKP sensor.
