Pulled over for my plate today
Usually you have to taek it to an mot station to have whatever you're supposed to fix check that it's been fixed...Faulty light, no indicator etc etc. Sounds like some normal (non- traffic cop) being an arse... As i said your letters are close to legal - poss spacing issue though? If it was on a white background on your bumper then no probs...search the net for cateram 7's etc and trhey all have stick on plates on the nose as there are no mounts on them..

hmmm. And you mentioned sensor failure...what sensor...give me your thoughts bud as i'm scratching my head at the mo. As i said i was going to pull coil packs and plugs next with the battery off so ECU then has to 're-learn'. My next port of call is to check for boost leak if this is still the prob... This is all since the plenum and rocker covers came off a few months back for cam shaft oil seal replacement a second time by a 'former' trader garage/barn near swindon..:headvswal (originals were leaking post re-build ...as they were prob put in with a socket with the cams in situ:rant:) it's been running like this since but off the road since Jan as i've not had time to MOT her.

Clamp closed forms a coil. It was open and accross the lower PTU wire rather than a cylinder/coil wire or tps..

H.mmmmm. Will try agian. However do you think my issue sounds like timing then or have i thrown a red herring in by telling you about that...I will check it again in a bit after i've fed my face but do you not think it's more boost leak/ coil pack/plug/ fuel related then (based on stellaz post) ??

I would have thought if the letters were on white background then it's legal as your letters are a standard font? Did you get a producer to take it to an MOT test centre for re-check? If not ignore them..

Sorry if this appears to be a hi-jack of your thread fella but just thought i'd share my thoughts as you seem to have the same problem?!! Hope you set the timing to what the conzult said? Thats what the ECU is trying to achieve.... What did conZult say? Conzult was saying 21BTDC strobe was 15tdc. Reset TPS to .42 volts as it was low, re-did the idle (750rpm) and then adjusted timing with the strobe as it was showing nearer 20tdc after base idle and tps adjustment.

Have a prob at the mo where it coughs and splutters as soon as i floor it. If i increase teh revs slow and steady without boost it runs fine. I have checked the timing with a strobe as conzult was reporting wrong and no change...about to search on here for boost leak after i've pulled the coil packs and checked the plugs, but assume as she runs sweet at tickover and right up to 3.5 /4k revs with no boost that boost leak is the way to go...?? Any thoughts anyone?

FA cup final
Hi guys!!! Man of my word....Pm me your paypal and i'll send you some Guinness tokens!! Was at Japfest today and needed a snooze after being up till 12:30am this morning working on my car! Hence the last post last night and the delay after a wee snooze when i got in tonight!...Allthough it was on the big screen never even got to see how i lost 15 quid today!!...The balls the wrong shape for me to be that involved anyway, but thought supporting a local side was worth a punt and would generate some fun!!!! anyway, pm me your details gang and i'll do it tomorrow as i'm hitting the hay early tonight! Presume this might assist my feedback scoring when transferred whatever this new function is for so i expect feedback in exchange if its like e-bay!! well done.
