Running richBoggy revs Jerks and attempts to cut out at around3-4k revs (usually when warm) Uses a lot of fuel Not as much of a punch when I hit the loud pedal. Lambda sensor? I have a spare one but cant get the current one off. I drove it for a mile or two with the lambda sensor unplugged and had the same issues. Could it be a sensor? Dirty/ clogged injectors? Earthing? ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

Coolant Temp Sensor (the green one on the thermostat housing) could be goosed. This will give you the symptoms you describe, especially when warm.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Also there are random flatsports/ hesitation in the higher revs (4.5k+ ) and a slight 'Pop' when it goes back to pulling hard. ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

As above my vote is either CTS or MAP sensor.________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Is this the car you have just had the head repaired on? If so I would say its the lambda and it will have been contaminated in coolant when it was stripped.Carl ________________________________________ C.G.Cars of Leicester, Peugeot/Citroen/Renault specialist Tel: 01162 624498/07799 405184 WWW.CGCARSLEICESTER.CO.UK36 narborough road south, Leicester LE3 2fn MOT station now open, tests £35 with a free retest.

He hasn't had it stripped down yet Carl, although I too think the lambda is a very good culprit. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

It only starts on 3cylinders and there Is a distinctive smell of petrol from the exhaust. Then clears after a minute or so.My mechanic said its HG. Lots of steam out the exhaust too. ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

Sounds quite likely, the fuel would usually be from the non-firing cylinder plus the lambda being confused to feck by the coolant, possibly dead by now which is quite common with hg fails.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
