Hello I have a 1996 2.8 automatic Pajero with a problem. I have taken the car to Main Mitsi dealer who has read the ECU and it gave these fault codes TC12 Boost Sensor and TC41 Throttle Control Valve. They could not help me any further! I have disconnected / Blanked off the EGR Valve and I now have full engine power. The problem is this. Always starts OK, when driving I have an intermitant fault which the symptoms are: Feels like running out of fuel / lack of power, yellow dash light comes on, black smoke from exhaust, sometimes this clears in a few seconds and power comes back up to
100% yellow light stays on, other times engine stays running on low power and black smoke? So far NO ONE IN THE UK HAS BEEN ABLE TO HELP ME!!! If anyone can help diagnose the fault that would be great.. To me it seems like a fuel or air mixture problem? Airflow meter has been mentioned but how can it be tested? The injection pump is not electronic but is manually operated with a traditional flexible cable... It will be interesting to see if anyone has also had this problem around the world. It is generally an excellent car and I have been very happy with it. Ideally I would like to have it repaired as soon as possible but unless I can get an idea of what is wrong it seems like no one in the UK can help! Look forward to all the replies!!!! Thank you very much for reading and helping.. Best regards blue-python UK- posted
