Indubitably the fastest, best-looking and generally all-round better-than-all-the-rest colour, Mat

Louis - have you installed the ECU yet? If yes, did you use the anti foulers?

Basically keep the sensor further back from the gas flow - so it only senses a fraction of the harnful gasses that are actually being poluuted into the atmosphere.

If you don't use an anti fouler - the sensor will know that the catalyser is not working because the emmissions are far too high!

Get it?

I've just been speaking to AJR and he tells me that the secondary o2 sensor is not the culprit. It is the air pump system - this is what is causing the CEL - I will reinstall the O2 sensor tomorrow and if that sorts out the CEL - then that's okay - if not, then I will have to sned the ECU back and get J's Racing to modify the UK spec ECU that I send them.

I wil then have to get one of my spare keys programmed to this ECU - I am really hoping that it is the o2 sensor and nothing else.

This is becoming more of a headache than I thought.

Does anyone know of a cheap OBD2 reader tool that I can purchase?

Thanks.
