hi all.
another problem with the bravo.
its a 2000 reg 1.6sx
new clutch and gearbox fitted approximately 1000 miles ago.
i have got the 'kangaroo affect' , starts after about ten minutes of driving and is intermittent.
doesn't happen whilst accelerating, but seems to happen whilst traveling at a steady speed , low to medium rpm, especially in third gear.
taking this into account im guessing the lambda sensor, as , it is ignored in 1st 5/10 mins and whilst accelerating.
its due a service so i will change plugs, leads, oil, filters, and the coil to eliminate all problems.
do you think this will fix it ?
also i heard somewhere the 1.6 16v has 2 lambda sensors ? true or false? and which should i change / is most likely to be failing ?
cheers , all help appreciated
