both my wheel bareings decided they didnt like being silent over the weekend so they got done today and for the past few weeks she's been running very very rich and back fireing a lot on the run down from high revs. Couldn't quite put my finger on it untill today when I had it on the ramp.
Havein a quick check over as I do every time I get it on the ramp I noticed something on the lambda wire. Pulled it down and saw it had been cut into prity much all the way by the alt belt. Must of snapped the cable tie and fell onto it. Hence why she's running very rich. New lambda on order
Pics of that and my mystery box i received today later on when I get home.

Indeed it is. Back from paint. Spark plug cover should be back tomorrow. Rear spacers bought. So update tomorrow with proper pics of the painted caps and spark plug cover. Then I'm going to spend the weekend takeing the arches off and cutting bits out to get my wheels to fit in properly with the spacers added and just to straighten it all up

Don't know if I'm rolling them mate bens sold his roller. Ill be cutting all the lugs holding the arches on off and pooeying it all back on properly as there's loads of little gaps and loose bits at the moment

Might roll them if its needed mate but I think there will be plenty of space

There a pain in the arse, I've got to cut all the clips off so that the wheel fits in the arch without catching. So they've got to be Pooey'd on, gonna have to get some g clamps out or something to hold them on properly while it sets

Glad you've sorted it Joe.

I was having problems with mine running right and my lambda was at fault too.
