Thanks Yobbo. I have checked all hoses. If this were a petrol engine it is like the ignition has been turned off for a second and back on again. It is a very abrupt loss / return of engine power. I. e. no response at all from accelerator then normal response. What we used to call a " flat spot ". The fuel filter is new and the throttle body clean. The EGR has a blank fitted with a hole in centre. DPF has been replaced.
