After i bought me xe i realised it didnt have a 02 sensor, my car is abit **** on idle sometimes and cuts out at junctions here and there, my gaffer reckons its because i havent got the 02 sensor which tells the ecu how much fuel+air to put in? i read up that the problem with these usually occurs on idle to low revs as this is when the 02 sensor is working the most and is not used on full throttle which again for me under full load is fine no problems what so ever. Just wondered if anyone else had this problem? (i am putting a 02 sensor in tommorow touch wood soo i will report back lol):thumb:
