Add Lambda to your list of consumables, along with MAF
PTMW! has been missing a bit on boost in 4th/5th. Not been too worried as it was due a service (82.5k), thought it maybe leads/plugs whatever.
Jason Crozier was @ ScoobySport when I came in today, along with his lappy, so he kindly plugged it in & we went out. After the first go at a bit of boost, advised me to tootle back to SS with an ultra-lite foot before I required another engine rebuild![EEK!](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Verdict - Dead Lambda sensor![Frown](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Another reason to get a LambdaLink, which I actually have but not yet fitted (
) and to replace the Lambda sensor on a regular (annual?) basis.
The Lambda, in conjunction with MAF is responsible for fueling. When it don't work, the engine runs well lean which will quite happily melt a piston![EEK!](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Thanks Jason & SS for saving me a few £££s
