Hey chaps.

When engine is cold and if I'm pulling out and accelerate quite hard just under 1500rpm sometimes I get a cough and engine shuts down. If I turn the key off and on again it fires up again and doesn't fail again. No EML light and I could load up TOAL to check what error it reads.

I did put some fuel injector cleaner and I think there's maybe an issue with an injector getting air or losing pressure. Could be that an injector is loose? Just wanted some views before I start to fault find.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?
