always good to hear,first time?

Yeah, first time since I took it out of the Legacy.

It's only been up under the van since last Saturday, so I don't think that's too bad - I've even had a life around it and gone to work and everything.

Now I have to see how badly it fails its MOT on Wednesday.....

It failed the MOT on....... emissions.

Not bad for a van that's been off the road for about 2 years.

And it's clicked why it's failed on emissions - I remembered I haven't connected one of the temp senders, so it thinks it's very cold and is running rich. Not THAT rich as it's only reporting 4.2% CO (allowable is 3.5%).

Should have that sorted later

Never before have I been so pleased when a van failed its MOT!

nice one mate

m the emissions on my smelly old diesel lump were 0.98%

see if it betters that - bio diesel not diesel though

PASSED

I don't care what the CO is - it's below 3.5% and that's enough for me - I'll let the ECU manage it.
