It'll catch up with you as well, it has too with the amount you eat.

There's no point owning a lightweight model without losing some ballast yourself.

sorry to bring this bit back up, just wanted to know if any of you guys who have the new ones have had any issues? i run a 20% meth mix constantly and got random cut outs for about 2 weeks before it completely died again on saturday at a junction.. lucky i had a laptop on me to disable the trip. mine also got changed while at gazzas. just wondering whether it was a one off?

As per PM, hopefully just a one off as these new sensors are guaranteed to work with meth - not had any fail on me yet!

I will exchange this for you no problem, check it here and, if need be, get it analysed by the manufacturer.

It might be worth checking the wiring though - if one of the wires either at the sensor end or the ecu end are not connected properly, the sensor would appear to have failed when it is still OK.

I doubt it as I've still got the battery plus he's got more important work to be getting on with.

Surprisingly not eating but he does more than his fair share of that, he's the only person I know who will go to get fish and chips and eat whilst in the queue, on the drive home, eat the meal and still be hungry afterwards.

Was doing a primer run today for the MG restoration job so I bunged my manifold and throttle body in as well to let them stand while I'm away on holiday next week.
Also my another little goody from Tim@JTInnovations,stainless fuel pressure sensor[thanks mate]
