Now then fella's, I've replaced the head gasket on my x16xe put can't for the life of me remember where I've removed a multiplug from.

Its a 2 pin with a brown/white wire and a black wire. Its positioned under the coolant reservoir near the throttle body. Engine runs and idles fine but holds back when travelling and eml comes on. Any help from people who know there corsa's much appreciated

Only things I can think of in that area are ICV, TPS, EGR and MAP sensors. Are all of those connected up?

TPS is three pins so it's not that.

I couldn't remember how many pins were on anything in that area tbh, just that as far as I know there are 4 connectors down there.

We're down to a group of 3 now anyway, so that reduces the chances! Can you think of anything else there that it could be Ian?
