Hey everyone, tried a search and its not loving it...
Ok, so the EF wagon is running like a*** when it's idling and when it's taking off... Changed leads and spark plugs but, not loving it... it will like miss like a mother b!tch until about 40kph and then it will smooth out.. What shall i do? Cheers.

have you checked for any vacuum leaks. MAP sensor maybe. Also fuel filter and air filter might need checking/changing.
phong =P~

What does the MAP Sensor look like?
How do i see if it's stuffed? or do i just replace it? Picture would be rad.... I thought about it being the coil pack but i asked a mate and he reckons that it would be doing it all the time.. like it wouldnt smoothen out... dunno.

The map sensor is a small black box, with 2 screws holding it to the firewall, just behind the BBM. It has a vac hose going in to the bottom of it

So. i went over the wagon today and pulle dthe spark plugs again and it seems as though i've done a head gasket because there was coolant on the back spark plug.
I'm guessing that is the reason for the s**t running. So, tomorrrow in goes the chemi-weld until the weekend or next.
