Hi Guys,
Have 04 ZD30, just done trip to Mt Isa, The big girl went well except now and the it would start loosing power, tried pushing pedal through floor but didn't help, took foot off go pedal for a couple of seconds hit it again and away she went, this happened 8-10 times with no set pattern, even with cruise on.
Hope some one can shed a light on it.

Cheers Col

Check fuel filters, could be throttle position sensor and /or MAF sensor.

Hi Choppie.
It sounds like your MAF is on the way out.
Contact Garry Clark at nizzbits, he is a great bloke and will look after you.

I had same problem, it was the electronics attached to the accelerator mechanism in the cab. Had it replaced and problem solved. I had euc come on under acceleration because of this !

Hope this helps
