Thanks for the reply Andy,
I will post the emissions stats later,
the car has recently been turbo converted, so there is no cat (although went through every year without) as for the lambda probe i checked it and seems to be working fine,
However, a single BLACK wire from the lambda back to the ECU has been snipped by someone in the past (intentionally ) , but I when i checked autodata the black wire was for the lambda pre heater, do you think that would effect fuelling?
I was more concerned that the co pot was reading -17 degrees. ps all sensors, leads, plugs ect are all new.
