Brummmm, erk! chug injection malfunction

[Norvun Lad]

Just replaced the manifold on a brava now I get a nice red light coming on when I release the accelerator and the bloody thing stalls when I'm stood still. Any ideas?

Thanks IA

Engine size? Sounds like you have damaged something. Which manifold? Inlet or exhaust?

Engine size is 1.4 (s) and the manifold is the inlet manifold (the one at the front of the engine block). Just remembered as well i've reset the erm... grey box thingy (cant remeber what it's called) so that's been rebooted. Still screwed though.

Yeah I like gravy, i like pie too :0)

Splutters more than Mad Matt McSplutter, winner of last years Mr Splutter competition?

You have either broken one of the manifold sensors or not reconnected it correctly. Thats why its stalling. Check the wiring.

Why on earth did you take the inlet manifold off???
