Hilux engine cutting out

[Brendan Maguire]

Hi folks, my hilux engine keeps cutting out every few hundred kms and displaying the engine management light, when I prime the fuel filter it starts up and returns to normal for another few hundred kms of driving before doing the same again, I have inspected the fuel lines they seem ok and replaced the fuel filter and housing, I have owned the car for 8 years and never had any dramas until now! Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated 

 

thanks 👍

I am just guessing but it sounds like fuel pump issue. If it is displaying a check engine light, then a good starting point is to use an OBD scanner to identify the error code.
