2.6 P1500

ancient explorer:
Hi Fellow members, I hope you are all well.  I sent the 2.6 to a garage near carlise for mot and service. Sailed through the mot,
but apparently, on return to its storage place, the eml light lit up. Thus far, they have replaced coil pack, plugs, rocker gaskets.
I'm now informed p1500 is now on the scan and goes into limp mode when it comes up to working temperature, after idling
for five minutes. apparently, it starts hunting and runs rough before the limp mode actuates. I have informed them to take it back to storage, as they don't seem to be the best people to fix it. I should state. it has been in undercover storage since sept/2019!!
     I asked storage manager to put a gallon of 98 fresh fuel, and preserver into tank, and start it up about six months ago. He stated started straightaway and run beautiful. :D I intend to replace fuel filters and fuel pump. Any advice, and suggestions,
gratefully accepted. I should also add I return to uk mid april, as have been visiting the grandkids. :)

P1500 Electronic Throttle Control Motor Failure. Check wiring first thing to do. Then check if it isn't dirty or gummed up with standing.

ancient explorer:
Will do Addy. Good advice. thank you.

Doctor Gollum:
The plug on the throttle is easy to break and never quite seats properly after disturbance. A pair of small cable ties is the most efficient fix :y

ancient explorer:
Thanks for the info Doctor. Could you confirm where this plug is situated. If said plug is attached to throttle control motor, then it makes sense that the garage inadvertently disturbed it, when they cleaned the breathers, replaced rocker gaskets etc.  I believe the garage in question just do mot's and basic servicing, so i'm not criticising them. Thanks again for the info.
