Spyda Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Hello, I've just unplugged my lambda sensor (for reasons known only to me ) and there was no difference what so ever with the way my car runs... anyone have any ideas about what the deal is?! Cheers, Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 If you have a bad lambda sensor or you remove it then the ECU will make the mixture rich to save the engine and it will run fine. Rich fuel mixtures resist detonation while lean ones do not, it's just a failsafe to protect the engine. I've just replaced a bad lambda sensor, it was very rich but running great. It's running even better now though with the new sensor and it's using less petrol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
