Started the car this morning and I noticed a strong petrol smell WoW Figured ok its just a pipe leaking, checked and nothing :think:

Drove to town and the car was dead my AFR was sitting at 10 the whole time so it was running very rich WTF was trowing petrol out of the exhaust :kallit:

Image

Checked Fuel pressure 2.6 with vacuum 3.0 without so that was spot on.

Did a Compression test at the end I had 8.5 8 8 8.5
Image

Only then I decided ok maybe something went wrong on the Dicktator's map, plugged in the laptop and got this
Image

One CTS Wire was chewed off I suspect it was a Rhabdomys pumilio :mrgreen:

Did a nice repair jop and then I got this
Image

AFR back to normal
Image

Still need to fit my Walbro pump

From what I have heard is that there was a problem at the ISP, even the OPC Club site was down but they did have a backup so i suspect they are rebuilding the OOC forum dont know if they had backups
