Technical Flashing Warning light/ no idle

[Edward Dwightwell]

please Help.

my 2001 MPI seicento wont idle. it starts fine, will idle for a few minutes then completly die.
i recently replaced battery, starter, alternator, and cam sensor. the car was also jump started, would this have destroyed the cat?
any help much appreciated, Edward.

If 'a few minutes' is enough to get the exhaust warm it sounds like a lambda problem. The car is open loop until the exhaust warms then switches to closed loop.

Cheers
