Gap should be around 1mm give or takeDue to the difficulties with the plugs and leads, I've orderred a new set, plug gap looked excessive, estimate 2mm,
So I've orderred new plugs and leads, for peace of mind.
That could well have been me, mis selecting it on the system, it didn't auto find it, so I had to go through the list,The post CAT O2 should be fairy flat at a constant 2K revs
Certainly isn’t running correctly
I see the car set in software is a 141 panda not a 169
Throttle body did look a bit mucky, generally oily, I didn't see a maf, although I don't know where it is.Check the throttle body is also clean. This may require special care on the 1.1 if the MAF sensor is buuilt in.
Someone mentioned the exhaust, while unlikely internal baffle failures could possible cause issues.
I would also clean the crank case breather pipes and consider changing the flame resistor in the main breathrer.
Are you using E5 or E10 petrol? Personally, I would steer away from E10.
You could try a fuel system cleaner additive and see if this makes any improvement.
Some oily is to be expected on a car of this ageThrottle body did look a bit mucky, generally oily, I didn't see a maf, although I don't know where it is.
YesAre these cars not rated for E10,
Mine runs fine on E10 the engine was designed to run on a lower octane so 95 should be fineI haven't had a petrol car in 10 years, diesels my preference,
Will it do it harm running on e10
I run both of our 2007 petrol Pandas on posh petrol which is E5. E10 is fine. However, I avoid 95 RON because they run so much better on 97 or above. These engines power and consumption spec are done with 97 RON fuel. They will run fine on cheaper, but they get ever more sluggish - as will any engine. The ECU protects from knock damage by retarding the ignition timing. Cheap fuels have the same energy content but the engines throw more heat down the exhaust pipe so you get less of everything at the wheels.Throttle body did look a bit mucky, generally oily, I didn't see a maf, although I don't know where it is.

no MAF on any panda petrol enginesThis may require special care on the 1.1 if the MAF sensor is buuilt in.
