I have a 2005 ford eco sport bought about 10 months ago. About two months after I bought it I noticed that the engine cut out at low rev's. I had the jets cleaned and had no more problems until saturday when it cut out at about 60-80km/hr as I slowed for a curve causing an accident, as I had no control over the brakes or steering.
