Hi the 02 is running and Fly's! But she is running rich, the tale pipes pump out loads of soot on start up (I had to wash the neighbours car it was so black) when driving the fuel she drinks is crazy also it smells a bit rich, sometimes when pulling away with my foot down she hesitates until higher in the revs, then she flys off like i have hit the NOS button. I would like to make a checklist so I can run through it this weekend.
Thanks Tom

Probably Oxy sensor, or maf/lmm. Anything else would show other simptoms unless the ecu is in the service/emergency mode.

Well i plugged it into the Ethos reader and it said the Maff was up the spout, i replaced that and plugged it in again, it say's Lambda control 1 and 2 then over time Lambda sensor 1 and 2.......
It runs ok without the Lambdas but at 17mpg on a long run....
I am getting power on the output to the Lambda relay, it runs ruff from the getgo..
Any more ideas?
Cheers
