Default Emmisions???? MOT Fail

Hi I have just had car mot'd and it failed on idle! He said it is over fueling it was supposed to be 750? but it was 2.25 or something like that.

Does anyone know the problem? Could it be
Air flow meter? or Lambda Sensor?

The car does drive lumpy low down especially when cold but is great on full throttle.

Any ideas on price and places to purchace parts would be great.

Oh it a 1999 wagon uk turbo standard apart from sti intercooler and p1 exhaust.
Cheers for all advice!
