Engine runs OK, but cuts out when I slow down - what can I do?

I have problems with the engine on my Ford Tourneo. When I slow down to stop, the engine will cut out. Had a new fuel filter fitted, but after a week started to cut out again. Ford tourneo is a 10 plate and used as a taxi.

Well given that you have changed the filter, we would suggest that you now carry out a diagnostic check as this should then show up a fault code,( ie P ---- 4 numbers) which should then relate to the problem.

It could be a number of things:

1. APP (accelerator pedal position sensor)
2. CKP (crankshaft position sensor)
3. FRP (fuel rail pressure sensor)
4. Fuel Flow control Valve
5. Air Intake shut off solenoid.
