RE: Help me AEU86, you're my only hope
There is another thing that you can check. If there is a partial blockage (crimped pipe etc)
in the fuel delivery you could be getting enough fuel to maintain engine performance at low
rpm, but not enough to support high rpm/load operation. If you can get a test gauge (or find
a garage that has one) you can monitor the rail pressure at idle and see what happens when
you rev the engine.

If the pressure drops substantially when you snap the throttle open, you have a restriction
somewhere. Pressure at idle should be in the range 30-33psi and if you disconnect the FPR
vacuum compensation hose from the FPR the idle pressure should rise to 38-44psi.
