Hi there, I have a problem with a Mk2 8v 1.2.

The red airbag light is lit and the yellow light that blinks upon switching the ignition on blinks constantly.

Is there a significance that both lights are on/blinking?

There is also a problem with the car running. It starts OK but appears to be very down on power. If you blip the throttle the car will stall, if rev it or drive it, once moving it runs well.

Apart from the obvious, air filter & plugs are there any other things to check. There are no errors shown with FiatECUScan but the Lambda attribute (can't remember exactly which at the mo) alternates between lean and rich - not sure if this is normal as do not have a good car to compare with. Car fires up and idles OK but sounds very strange when cranking - almost like when the cambelt has snapped (it hasn't)
