[QUOTE="OnceBitten, post: 2370441, member: 5050"] Tuesday I was driving home in the Cobra and when I pulled out onto the main highway, I snatched second and third. At about 5500 rpm in 3rd, the car stumbled badly, the SES light came on, and I shut it down. I coasted to a stop, and when I tried to crank the car again, it fired up, but acted very sluggish as if the timing was backed down badly. It wouldn't idle well, and after stumbling for a few seconds at idle, would simply die. I pulled the codes and got a P1000, P0190, and P0234. From what I've gathered searching the forums here, the Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor might have gotten damaged somehow. I bought a new FRPS Wednesday to try and fix the issue. I installed the new FRPS, and now instead of misfiring or stumbling under load, it cranked once and ran like it was on 5 cylinders, and now won't crank at all. I pulled the FRPS and there is gas in the vacuum line...cleaned off the new FRPS and blew into the fuel rail end, and sure enough, blows right out the vacuum tee. Obviously I have a defective (or previously used) FRPS. Could this have done any damage to the car? I'm hoping that it won't start because it's flooded the cylinders and soaked the plugs. If I can't figure this out this weekend, I'll be taking it to the dealership, where hopefully they will cover it under warranty. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
