KiNK43 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Wasn't that one of the first suggestions? Good result if that fixes it. Think jimbob ruled that one out tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Probably was Jake, I'm just saying this is one way to find/rule it out and luckily it seems to be that at fault.Cool! Just wanted to be sure the pattern ones are okay as genuine ones are expensive to put it lightly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 The one I've got waiting to be fitted is a denso one from tegiwa... Bout £60 i think it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I picked up a brand new ntk lambda off eBay for 10 quid. Was for a rover 620. Just lopped plug off and reused mine.Worth searching for those who can't afford full price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Nice! I'll see if I can find a bargain one but £60 isn't bad either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadi Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 This is very worrying as the mc2 I bought the other weem has done this to me three times now from cold. Pull off, light throttle and its almost like it has a rev limiter fitted, just hangs around 3k rpm and pops away, no power. Did anything come of changing the lambda as above? I'm starting to regret buying this car already I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Don't do that.Krzys with his had a loose spark plug.Mine only does it when it's wet.Next I'm changing the o2 sensor to see if its that.What he said, one of my plugs was very loose and another one needed tightening too! Was fine after! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadi Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 My mechanics said he doesn't think its a mechanical problem when I took for the MOT which is a big relief but now I gotta trace the problem..plugs and leads will be first I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 It'll never be mechanical per say, electrical or fueling, usually electrical though. Plugs, leads, distrubutor, injectors or fuel pump. One of those probably the cause. Diagnosing it may or may not be a sod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantone Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Have you tried unplugging your lambda sensor to see if it makes any difference? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
