Johns right that they are a consumeable but their life is measured in hours use not years in the car.

Straight on the phone tomorrow

Up to press this year- knock sensor, maf sensor, lambda sensor, Defi gauges, Tek3 next month and loving every moment

Sorry Bob, meant to say 30k miles too, it just happened that my car had done 30k & was 3 years old when JB gave the info

 

Brun,

Look in column D (front O2 sensor). From at least 4500rpm and up, for your car, you should have 0.89 figures and higher. You have 0.86 and lower. This is where we can see that the car is running lean. You may have contaminated the new MAF with that split.

You're in a difficult position. You may buy another new MAF and find the problem is fixed, however you may find it doesn't fix it. You may then buy a new lambda sensor and find it's OK or maybe not.

What do you do? Get a new MAF first, or a new lambda sensor? If it were me, I'd get a new MAF first, cos I'd be thinking the new one is contaminated. If this didn't fix the problem I'd then get the new lambda sensor.

This is what I'd do and in no way am suggesting you do the same.

Good luck with whichever way you decide to go. Keep us posted.

Cheers,

George.

On the new log you've posted, your MAF readings are entirely appropriate, as is the ignition timing and IDCs. The lambda voltage is inappropriate, meaning either a bust lambda probe (likely), or a prob with fuel pressure/flow (unlikely).

If I was a betting man I'd put a tenner on replacing the oxygen sensor fixing it.

Cheers

Well thank **** for that
Scoob gararge raped me to the tune of £115 for a new Lambda , but it appears to be worth it as all is well
The Afr dives straight into the green in the blink of an eye under throttle. When it goes into green it is not just the first couple of led's, it floats around the 3rd 4th and 5th led's which has gotta be good.
If i can - i'll get yet another Delta done to put my mind to rest
The reault of this long drawn out Saga is one fooked maf and one fooked Lambda and a toasted switch card
Thanks for everybody's comments - you are all ace
I'll post up if i get another delta done

 

Brun

If your at Scoobyshootout I will have my Delta Dash with me, if you want to wait until then

 

Dammit i forgot about the Shootout - i'm working that day
Thanks for the offer anyway Steve
