    2004 Rude 200HO won't accelerate beyond idle

    Model # E200FHLSRC Serial# 5041689

    Was running wide open yesterday when the engine hiccuped/surged then came off pad.
    I tried to get back on pad, but engine will not go above ~1200 rpm.
    Engine idles fine, but everytime I attempt to accelerate it gets to 1200 rpms then seems to start chugging like it floods itself out.
    I would appreciate any suggested diagnosis.

    Sounds as if your TPS has gone out on you! You will need to hook it up to the diagnostic software to confirm.

    My 2008 E-tec 150 HO is in the shop for the exact same thing except it won't gop above 2500rpms. I hope to know something on Thursday when I get back in town.

    After a quick diagnosis at shop it was a busted throttle cam. Less than an hour to diagnose, install new cam and retreive all pieces of broken throttle cam. $125 and all seems to be well...

    That's a new one on me. Glad ya got it figured out on the cheap side. I'll remember that one. My 03 hasn't let me down @ wot yet. A few small glitches but it's been a great motor.
