Na not MAP, I've done that one before. Had a bit of a play yesterday and it looks like its the ISC playing up. I think it might be something in the tune but i'll know more when i can have a good go at it. I'm just glad it's running again after a year sitting in the shed.

Had a good go at it today. Went right back to the beginning. Set no1 at tdc compression, checked valves timing was right, checked dizzy and yep it was out of sequence. Took it out and reset it. What a Bugger of a job that is trying to do it under the log manifold. Started the car first go.

The car has a j3 chip that was meant to be for 42lb injectors but it seems to be overfueling badly. On another note I seem to have a vac leak somewhere because it is idling high.


Has the car been tuned since fitting the Turbo?

How old is the O2 sensor?

I got a J3 chip with the kit that was meant to be for the turbo and upgraded injectors. O2 sensor is from an el that i wrecked and was cleaned out before installed. I'm looking at getting a DIY tuning kit from TI and will tune it from there.

You can't "clean" O2 sensors. They last around 60 - 90,000 km and then need to be replaced.

Spend the money and get a new one.

Ahh yep. I'll have to invest in a new one.
Would that be causing my idle issue?
