Not the potentiometer

Hiya all



Well i have spent most of today tinkering with the car and i will be dammed if i can find any air leaks. The engine is still "hunting" but i have had a couple of thoughts about the probable cause.


- Faulty Lamdba



- F@cked ECU (very unlikely but could be the cause)



- Mass Air Sensor



- Cracked Manifold



How can i establish if either the Lambda or mass sensors are faulty with out spending big bucks at the garage, as the car is just not worth spending £300-£400 on.



Cheers all


This should cover most of it

it's really hunting the most likely thing is the idle stabilisation valve.

Go to Halfords. Get Haynes Automotive Engine Management Manual.
