I have just fitted a exchange fuel rail that has been powdered coated to my speed six, the only differance being the way the fuel supply enters the rail. All went well tll i went for a run, then the mil light came on, and i now find the car hunts ln lower gears, i never had this problem until fitting the new rail. The car runs ok apart from the hunting and the mil light, i presume these are conected. L have replaced all the O rings, and there are no fuel leaks. The only thing i can think of is to put the old rail back on and see if this makes any differance. Any ideas!!

Hook it on the laptop and see what the error codes are, injector timing, lamdba, etc...

Disconnected the air box sensor, it just ran like a pig, i'am starting to wonder if it's a fuel pressure problem, i noticed the threads on the blanking screw, and the fuel pipe connection had a lot of play in them, until they where done up realy tight, thats on the exchange fuel rail, although i did give them a good smear of red loctite. The exchange rail is off a Tamora,and the fuel connects in a differant place on the rail, but i wouldn't have thought that would make any differance.
