Z is running to rich!!
cant find one,but its simple enoughthey are situated behind the colipacks you will see the leads going to them,undo wire clip,dont break plug connector and clean them,back 2 are fiddly to get to then refit placing the wire clips back on and secure properly heres a link to some helpful hesitation tips http://zhome.com/ZCMnL/PICS/hesitation/hesitation.html

easy test pull each coilpack plug out 1 by 1 with car running,when you pull the plug out you should hear the car hesitate as if its going to stall,if it doesent then you can safely say that cylinder isent fireing correctly when you find the cylinder that is down,use a spare coilpack and sparkplug fit conector on that cylinder plug and earth it to engine get someone to turn car over and check for spark,if your getting spark then you can rule out the connector,to save yourself time remove the coilpack and replace with the known working one check spark plug aswell now clean the injector harness plug and injector connector with electrical cleaner with a wire brush until both terminals are clean and refit using the wire clip to hold it in place making sure its connected properly! retest 90% of the time its dirty injector plug/s that cause problems now retest and check cylinder is fireing using the 1st point! if not its either going to be to replace injector plug and harness on that cylinder or at worse leaking injector o-ring or injector insulator,which is plenum removal,but as said likely to be the above,besides commonly you would have strong fuel smell where the injector is leaking,and smoke from the exhaust of unburnt fuel remember dont fix what aint broke,if this is a very rare occurance then just do a general cleanup of the injectors as they go corroded and dirty over time,and dont work correctly HTH greg
-
some advice?
you just replace the injectors and o-rings themselfs and fit a chip suited for the injectors

Z is running to rich!!
could be down on a cylinder hence the rumbling/hesitation

as said if you cant get the corect reading via cas,then the cambelt needs to be checked

Fao Legrath
code 54 is fine,this is because yours use to be an auto,know its a manual,it is showing the error,dont worry as for your base timing at 25degrees if its not ajustable via the Cas then id presume the timing belt is out by a tooth or 2,and this is why your performance is poor,with that far advance id get that sorted asap-to avoid any damage!looking at your car its up to temp @84degrees so you can safely say that is the correct reading for the timing,get some one near you to set up your timing to the correct figure of 15degrees
