Checked all the injectors all good. Checked spark all good. Did notice a little black Lucas connector that connected 2 wires near the afm. They seem to join the same loom as the afm. There was a massive amount of resistance in the connector. What are these wires for? The are white with a black...

I'll try that with the AFM and see how we go. Defo gonna invest in one of those fault code readers though! Look an awesome bit of kit. How would I go about stopping the dizzy coming out of time? Or is the engine timing your talking about? I'm trying to find someone who is relatively local to me...

Thanks guys. I have a few things to keep me Busy checking now. I have tried the air flow Meter disconnected and it really wants to cut out.

Yeah it's running but really badly and there is hardly any power at all. And like I said there was no difference in engine note when I took the leads off the n/s bank. I think someone is looking at it thursday. A local guy who knows them inside out so I will eat some humble pie and send it to...

There is no engine management light on at all. And is the wire a thin green one?

No it seemed as though it was misfiring and over fuelling as soon as I had it. I was running it for a couple of days, started fine in the morning and cut out. Didn't wanna start again. Plugs were wet and black. They were genuine parts yeh. And yes the engine runs now, but it's really gutless...

Basically I'm new to the whole V8 scene. One morning my disco cut out and wouldn't start again. It smells like its over fuelling and when I pulled the plugs out they were black an wet which is a sign to me of overfuelling. I am wondering where to go with it? Common faults? I have heard about...
