Ok, its doing about 28 to the gallon, really bad in my opinion. I got new sparks, new HT leads and a new lambda. just got new clocks (with tacho) and the injector light has come on constantly, possibly my bad wiring cos its only doing it with new clocks but still... kinda weird.

Been using some redex last tankful and for some injector cleaner in this one but it seems to be making no difference. Its taking its time starting aswell. when i changed th sarks it started almost instantly but now is taking longer.

Any ideas because I dont know where else to lok or whar else to try

It seems to be running really rich aswell cos the sparks are getting reall sooty real fast....

just a thought but any chance of a buildup of soot in the chambers that could be causing this??

OR could it be the injectors??

OR could it just be my ECU playing up due to the new lambda sensor. Its done over 200 miles since the change though.
