millsn Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Does anyone have any advice? My car is on throttle bodies using MBE ECU and it is getting a ported cylinder head. i am travelling from Peterborough to London for the mapping and going to Spa the next day! If I trailer I will be borrowing it and either doing two trips then going to Belgium or leaving someone elses trailer somewhere strange, if I drive I run the risk of the mixture being too lean. I think I need the use of a lambda sensor to put enough fuel in to ensure safety (if at the expense of the environment) for the trip to London. Is there somewhere that might help me test the air/fuel ration at different rpm? Anyone nearby have one maybe? Nigel Mills - 2.0 zetec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Formston Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hi millsn I drove my Zetec 18,00 with Jenve trottle bodys to Dave walker at Emerald from Mold in North Wales about 150/200 miles after having the head ported by Ammo and a set of fast road cams with no ill efect I just drove it steady see how it runs when you start it up If it's running really rough then trailer it but if it feels ok just take it steady, and I have just got a Lambda sensor boss fitted no sensor only when it is tuned doe's Dave fit the sensor Regards Paul Edited by - Paul Formston on 7 Aug 2007 19:50:28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millsn Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 It would certainly save alot of hassle if I could just drive the car down; I must confess I'm a little short of confidence in doing so though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
