Engine stops while driving
Posted: Sat Jul 20, 2019 9:27 pm
Hello All
Engine started misfiring occasionally while driving but only In right hand corners or roundabouts ? Then took it out and it would lose power completely for 2-3 seconds and recover and repeated so managed to limp home. Would not hot start - sensor plate has resistance so not accumulator. Out of Mot so only started and idled on drive .Hot starts but not all the time. Took to mot ,had to be pushed off hoist but started 10 mins later for brakes and emissions -CO2 0.04%
Very low! Engine cut out when tester parked and 5-6 hot start attempts before I drove 200 yards and engine died totally in traffic intersection no start for 10 min then 200yards home.Numerous unconnected plugs and wires in front left engine bay and ECU lead out of bulkhead is not connected -to o2 sensor. Am I open loop,too lean and causing the problem? Need to buy new trolley jack tomorrow to access underneath. Nick set the system up so it should be perfect.
Advice appreciated Chris
