I seem to very vaguely remember something from back in the late 1980's over here where some manufacturers, Bosch I think was one that used to have some type of rev limiter built into the ignition distributor to stop it over revving?

This country, the UK (GB) we are told that our vehicles must reach high standards for emissions purposes, looking at zero emissions at the tail pipe and all this technology on our vehicles were we are told must be there to combat these emiss...

Also you must add the parasitic volume of hoses ...thanks to ...

On top of each injector is an adjuster, technical data says the adjustment should be 180 degrees, I had problems with that and contacted both VW and Haynes, who both have the same settings. I e...

Tony, I have a Corsa C with the same fault code as yourself, I have the advantage that I have Tech 2 to check live data and fuel trims, however on the Corsa I have I also have P0135 and P0136, and live data shows the fuel trims as 0% all the time at the moment. Running the engine at 3K the lambda's ...
