Fault code on 75 cdti Con

[davidb7306]

Hi, Have just had a problem with loss of power and it looks like it is down to fuel contamination (petrol) drained tank and topped up with fresh fuel from another source but engine still sluggish and will not rev above 3000.
Error code comes up as P1260 del fuel pressure monotoring.
Can anyone advise please.

Is that a fuel rail pressure fault code? I'd try a filter replacement first I think. How did you drain the tank? Did you mop up excess fuel with paper rag? Any chance that it hasn't all been removed and its blocked the pickup from the tank?
