Hey guys, urm got bit of a problem. If my car goes over 50/60 brings up the eml, and it looses power very quicky, i can't put my foot down, else it brings up the eml. I have to drive throw the gears.
Any ideas?

Cable throttle.
AFM if you ask me.
Go to a Motor Factors as it'll cost half what it does at a Vaux dealership. Or go to the scrappy and try your luck!

Only thing i havn't replaced is the air flow meter, suppose could try the EGR Valve. I was driving to day, and it just kept coming on, i would let of of the peddal and it would come off after a few seconds.

Freind has a 1l and her afm went, very common on these engines. Vaux want silly money (£145) i think but got one off a friend who works in a scrappy.

Unplug the airflow meter, afm, and see if the car will start once it gets warm. If it does, unplug the map sensor, usually found beside the water tank, and with the afm plugged in, and see if it starts then. Let us know what happens. and if the crankshaft sensor you put on was second hand, then replace it with your old one.

Crank shaft was brand new, Its idle'ing really bad on cold start, but if i turn engine off and back on, it will be fine. I'll unplug the air flow meter when i get to my car later.

Will be the Mass air flow meter. I'd suggest going to a garage.

Not really got money to be splashing out on it, lost my job, so money is hard at the moment! I think it is the Air flow meter anyway, because if i put my foot down, it just brings up eml light up.
