HI

my 19 seems to have a reel problem with power, when i put my foot down on the throttle in gears 3,4,5 the car holds back, its really bad when you have your foot to the floor and get overtaken by a 1.1 r5, and its not idleing very well, the needle seems to be going up and down.

my other 19 ph1 seems to pull like mad much quicker than this one

anyone got any tips

various sender probs I'd imagine.

However start with cleaning out the TB, the breather pipes and the plugs to.

Check the map sesnor pipe for splits etc

Dissconnect the battery for a while then plug it back in.

Then go for a drive and see if its improved.

the pulsing revs at idle will more than likely be the lambda, but if you go on a longish drive it can bring them back if th engines running right.

So do all that and see what happens.

You can unplug things and note if things improve, liek the map sensor etc
