Markie Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Ohhh yes.. *hush* nodding dog! The beauty has passed her MOT today. I am SO chuffed, as some of you know, I had a nightmare time with the emissions.. Anyways, all is cool now. Just goto re-fit the front de-cat pipe which I hope is quite easy, and then re-set ECU. Ohh, I am so happy... Someone's going to get spoilt tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markie Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Well, first I swapped out the O2 sensor and run some Slick cleaning stuff through with the fuel, then filled up with otmimax and run that through for a good day or two. That brought CO emissions from 9.0% down to 0.3% and also made the hydrocarbons under the limit, but I was still getting over the limit LAMBDA readings. So, I then replaced the sooty plugs. This then brought the CO's way below the limit, HC's were 8 and the limit is 200! and the LAMBDA reading also managed to get under the safe limits..

afennell Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 how hard is it to replace the o2 sensor. This is located on the exchaust just under the monifold, with a wire goign into a plug on the front of the engine. is this correct?
