Long story short.
About 2 months ago, got engine warning light come for 30 sec or so then went. (Knew it'd be nothing really bad as I've only just put a new motor in)
Since then have put an A/F gauge in and have been able to see what exactly is going on with the mixture.
As fuel consumption has not been anywhere near as good as i used to be able to get, I decided to put a new 02 sensor in.
Did that prob 2 weeks ago, started off reading just on rich for a few days on my A/F Gauge, then started sitting in lean more and only getting up to optimal on long steady drives pretty much.
Engine light comes on for 10 sec or so then goes off, specially when alot of stop start driving around town.
Been to the coast and back and had no probs, but as soon as I got back into shitty driving it did it again.
Anyone have any ideas why it's doing this?
Everything is hooked up correctly etc.
Thanks
