Volkswagen Transporter engine cuts out under acceleration
Variant: T25 1.9 Petrol - Water Cooled
Model Year: 1989

Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Please can you help. My T25 has developed a problem overnight. Once it has warmed up the engine cuts out when you go to pull away in 1st and struggles to accelerate in other gears.
I have cleaned the carb, checked all the hoses and inlet manifold for air leaks and nothing found. Not quite sure what to go for next ?
She ticks over lovely at idle. Quite a few electrical parts to change so not sure where to start. I don't want to spend a couple of hundred quid changing units etc to find it hasn't solved the problem. Is there a common bug ?

have you checked the fuel pump.also check there isnt a restriction in the fuel line from the tank. fuel filter may also be clogged

How does it run at idle, if a bit rough you may have problems with plug leads, coil etc
