Hi all,

Think my FTO is overfuelling a tad. (200 miles out of a tank when taking it easy). I need to take it to someone to checkout, as I can find nothing wrong myself after;

New plugs, leads, filters and oil.
Pulling fault codes (Came up fine)
Only mods are a stainless system and decat.

Only place I know of is Hyeline in Cardiff, but a few peeps have told me to steer clear. Any truth to this?

Cheers

Earl Grey

my very short dealing With the above wink was that they basically wanted me to replace half the engine ..... etc and after taking it to a garage that i trust " osaka in Newport " they told me the car is fine after many tests. it was just my right foot that had lead soles, that was the reason for heavy fuel loss !!!

HI all,

Popped round Osaka. The chap said before he has a look at it, to stick some of him injector cleaner through the system. Seems fair, as he could have just asked for a diagnostics fee. Will pop round later in the week.

As for the decat. Yes, I had a stainless system fitted with decat. The lambda is fitted before the cat though, so unless the increased airflow is messing up the map, I'm not sure what to think.

I'm toying with an Apexi Neo or eManange Blue. I'm using £60 a week in fuel (200 miles or so), and if a £200 fuel computer can offer me some savings plus more power, then I can justify it.
