happy motoring for a couple of months

then disaster again

when the car got warm it was stuttering coughing and was soo rich

i was down to 200 km per tank of fuel

so changed the blue cooling sensor , airflow meter , coil , lead's, dissy cap , rotor arm , ign amplifier

but still nothing sorted

so i started proper diagnosis with a multimeter and all

i stupidly left the ECU to the last as it was new !!!!!

but it turned out the plastic cover above it had a nice little crack in it letting water drip onto the connector !!

green wires , so i stripped the connector cleaned every pin , and refitted with a fixed cover

but the problem was still there i little bit

i had a 4 branch manifold to fit with a new (quieter) exhaust as the one on the car was a single box LOUD one !!

as i was fitting the 4 branch i noticed the lambda probe was rattling

problem found , new lambda fitted and oooooh yeah we off again







but i have now got problems with the backbox rattling on the rear beam

it appears the back box is for a 16v modded to fit the rest of the system (not well)

so i think i will upgrade to a stainless system from a 16v as i love the look of the 2 square tailpipes
