Checked the blue temp sensor on the thermostat housing ? Failing that I would have the inlet manifold off and replace the gasket they are after all only a paper thing

well if you have changed everything else then must be gasket at an outside shot it could be the power steering sensor at the front of the engine - it has been found to cause all sorts of strange goings on when faulty |

just been out to look for the connector to put it on a diagnostics machine, did a search on here to find the places where they are, and cant find it in the places, so maybe it was taken out with the old engine when i did the conversion? so looks like im going to have to fault find and start fitting new bits everywhere till is stops, first thing to do is to put the PTFE gasket on________________________________________ Black Ph1 XSi-6161.8BHP (Getting Better!!!!) |

Just been thinking, once i have changed the other bits and i still get this prob, would it be worth changing the tps? Or would that have different symptoms?Cheers ________________________________________ Black Ph1 XSi-6161.8BHP (Getting Better!!!!) |

Does a faulty icv cause the car to "buck" on you when driving? i have been getting a similar problem with my idle changed the gas pump, the crank sensor, the fuel filter and the multi-function relay and cleaned the stepper motor and the idle problem and "buckering" persists.________________________________________ RJ |
