granby Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Decided to check my crank & cam sensors today after someone suggested they maybe partly the cause of my slight misfire i have, the cam sensor was fine but when i took the crank sensor out this is what i found
granby Posted November 7, 2009 Author Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) Just a little update, car hasn't been running properly lately, lumpy idle, hesitation at 2500rpm and crap fuel consumption Simon (JGM) came round yesterday and it seems my lambda sensor has packed up, Simon did have a spare sensor but unfortunately it was the wrong one For a laugh i phoned Subaru and they wanted £242.45 , on the advice of Simon i got in contact with Just Lambda and they are sending me one for the grand total of £69 inc delivery Edited November 7, 2009 by Granby

granby Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 (edited) Well it seems we may have finally sorted out the running issues I've had with the car lately, Simon (JGM) came round yesterday to switch the lambda sensor back on after i changed it When we were driving he noticed that it was reading lean all the time (was reading rich last time) and he didn't want to leave it like that as the ECU would probably want to chuck in a load of fuel to compensate After a bit of head scratching i suggested could the old CEL fix that was fitted by Xtreme Scoobies a few years back when i first had a decat be the problem as this was a resistor across 2 of the wires leading to the ECU Simon removed the resistor and rejoined the wires and away we went again and now the lambda sensor was changing from rich to lean to rich etc as it should be The car now drives a lot better and now does actually idle without any hunting so fingers crossed it's all sorted I would like to say a big thank you to Simon for his patience in dealing with this issue and hopefully the next time i see you will be for a bit more power (meths) Edited November 21, 2009 by Granby
granby Posted January 28, 2010 Author Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) OK a bit of a update, went to Surrey rolling road today to have a tweak by Simon (JGM), since the last time i was there I've put in new spark plugs and a new fuel pump (walbro hi flow) which seemed to have cured a problem i had that i thought was down to the Simtek, last time it was remapped it made 434bhp & 380ft lbs This time we got 444bhp & 385ft lbs on just V power but with a 15% methanol mix with V power it went up to 470bhp & 415ft lbs at 1.7 bar I would like to say a big thank you to Simon for his mapping skills and putting up with all my emails over the last couple of months New fuel pump against the old walbro 255lt pump Edited January 28, 2010 by Granby
granby Posted March 15, 2010 Author Posted March 15, 2010 Number 3 piston gave up on me yesterday at the MLR 30-130 not sure what i'm gonna do at the moment
