I decided tonight id run a datascan, in the document below it shows the results.

At fist my left O2 sensor was hardly not moving at all (i though it must need replacing) but then after a few mins it started going back and forth.

 

I was a little worried at the timing reading though!!!

I remember someone saying that it would show about 10 higher on the datascan for some reason - can't remember why but might have been something to do with the auto to manual conversion.

 

Also it revs stupidly high - anyone know what this might be

 

any help greatly appreciated

Your water temp is stupidly high for a start! Secondly with the revs being that high then the target timing is about right. Most probable reason for high revs is either mis-adjusted TPS or throttle cable too tight and holding throttle open...

probably the TPS then i would think.

How do you set that correctly?

Have a look in FAQ section - may well be under setting base idle or something :)

Unless you've just been for a REALLY Hard run then you have some serious cooling probems to sort as your first priority.

 

TPS of 0.60 will not give you an idle that high.

Actually the car had been sitting for quite a while:-( any ideas what i can do with these 2 issues

shot viscous coupling could explain the high temp, does it run that hot while moving at speed too?

I never see any real change in the temp gage

i just know it doesn't really go up or down but always seems very hot,

stock temp gauge is famously useless
