Some time ago I asked on here about a particular problem with my 2.5td estate. The engine would run for 5 -10 mins then the throttle pedal would just kind of die and eventually the engine would stop.
It turns out that there was an alien being living in the lift pump filter ! Was a nasty slug like thing that did not like white spirit at all. Cleaned it out and the car is fine now.
I think that the alien was being sucked up into the pump inlet and the pump was overheating and some kind of cut out was operating inside the pump.
Anyway that's it and thanks to the person who did the lift pump write up
