in need of help

[Azza]

ok got a 1.4sx 12v ... (pls no comments about the petrol guzzler)

but as i was gonna say lol ... plugs and leads .. are there any performance leads i can wack on instead of standard OE 1's magnicore etc as for plugs i think mine are still knakerd!

im also overfueling when i rev my engine n sniff the zaust fumes it smells of petrol really strong! my m8 said a flame shot out my zaust when i pulled from him the other day ... which tells me err a little RICH are we? will resseting the ECU fix that or?

when i turn my lights on my revs drop bad! my leccy wondows are slow and my sunroof also was suggested the batt is pants! its the original 1 from its birthday lol get a heavy duty 1?

1) they make no difference at all All plug leads are near enough the same. The only performance about them is the fact they are not shot to hell like your current ones. On my other cars I use the yellow or orange universal silicone ones from halfords/motorworld/etc.. as they grip the plug nicely and don't let water in.

2) if it did not overfuel a certain amount on acceleration it would damage the engine. Yours is probably a bit richer cos of the silly exhaust. Nothing you can do about it as its hard programmed into the ECU.

3) Shot battery and probably a shot alternator too. Check the battery voltage is 13.8-14v with the engine running.
