My Rallye has developed a complete power loss at around 3500, it's as if the ignition has been switched off - total power loss and no throttle response at all.
I've done some basic checks and everything seems in order, a search on here has pointed towards a fuel pump fault, I can hear it prime when I switch the ignition on and the car sounds and runs sweet until I accelerate to 3500 rpm.
Has anyone had the same symptoms ?

Problem solved, silicone hose to the Viper air filter was collapsing due to a blockage further down the line !
