Give TLM a ring on 01255 830331 they charge around £30 to plug it in to their diagnostic.   They are located in Tendring, between Colchester and Harwich.  

I am pretty sure the 3.9 has a MAF or similar which is a sensor on the air intake that measures the volume of air entering the injection system, they can get mucky and give false readings to the ECU, they are very, very fragile though so clean it like its made of glass.

--- Quote from: "greasemonkey" ---Hi being an N reg it will be fuel injected
therefore will have a temp sensor
this will set the fuel amount depending on temp of engine
if knackered will cause this fault by either over fueling (revving)
then the lambda says too much fuel and cuts it out (dying)
replace sensor all will be well

Replace the temp sender, they're not expensive £ 14,76 inc vat + postage, from rimmer bros. I need mine doing too. Maybe 15 mins work.
