Answer

I would need the diagnostic trouble codes stored in the onboard computer in order to begin to help, please have the DTCs retreived and let me know, whether it will stop on you or not depends on what the trouble is so it's an important first step to find out what those codes are.

Answer

Sorry, can't help more without knowing the trouble codes stored in the onboard computer, it's the first step in diagnosing any computer controlled engine.
