Definately got a map sensor, the fault code indicates it, and i've just found it in the Haynes manual, ( beside the radiator expansion tank ). | |

sounds like the choke sticking on that would explain it being ok when cold but when its warm its putting too much fuel in thats y it would run bad and stink. as far as i know i dont think that there is a map sensor on it its more likely to be the lambda sensor in the exhaust | |

When the engine is warm and ticking over roughly, the exhaust fumes smell rich. | |

hard to tell without lookin at it theres not much to the 1.2 8vs to go wrong check all the vacuum pipes around the carb anyone of them would mess it up really that would explain low manifold pressure. does it use a lot of fuel when its warm. | |

The engine when cold starts ok, even though the ecu light stays on. | |

id ignore the coolant temp one its the manifold pressure one you need to pay attention to. can you not start the car or is it just runnig like a old dog. | |
