Hi Guys, Please bear with me have a long story to tell.
Had some trouble with my 99 plate 1.6sx 16v Brava.
It started with the dreaded injector light coming on and staying on at low revs. I looked through this forum and found it was a comon fault normally being an injector failure. Sure enough I had two open circuit dead injectors.
Replaced both dead injectors with some 2nd hand ones from the breakers and have an average reading of 16-15 ohms across all four injectors. Car fired up lovely and have no more injector light. Took car for its mot as it was nearly due.
It failed on high emissions. fast idle co level is 0.72. 2nd fast idle co is 2.84 and natural idle co is 3.89. Also the examiner complained he had trouble getting the car to hold 2500 rpm as it would drop to 1500 rpmm then race to 3500 rpm. this was not a problem before the injectors.
Has any one got any ideas? maybe a dodge 2nd hand injector? maybe some sensor or another has failed? Any ideas or tips would be greatly received. thank you.
