    Default speed sensor?

    ive finally got my v6 gemi goin. so excited, til i took it for a spin and it cuts out when i guess im doin bout 50km/h or so. its such a tight squeeze in the tunnel that the sensor sits hard up against the tunnel. so i assume that its damaged...

    im sure ive read that this symptom is caused be a faulty sensor. can anyone verify?

    cheers,

    Hi . . I've just completed a V6 manual conversion of VN into another car and its doing similar to what is doing. It will only get to about 35/40km/h and cuts out, but comes good again . .

    The engine light stay's on but goes from "bright" to "dim" when the engine is started but it just comes up with a code 12

    Was hoping you could tell me what the problem ended up being with your ride??
