Well I needed a cheap auto run around for a while and I came across this. It had been stood for 3 months because of running issues (it runs like a shed) She's in need of a new crank sensor which I hope will be with me tomorrow. If that cures all the fault codes then I'll start sorting out the outside. I have cleaned the inside. It was mingin. I've used the best part of a bottle of frebreeze trying to get the smell of fags out of it. Due to her condition when she turned up she is now called the "GROWBAG"

Various fault codes stored. Main one being code 19 which does come up as rpm signal low but is the code for the crank sensor. Two others which I think are complete bolloxs and probably happened when we jump started it. The only other one is air temp sensor. I won't change that until I have done the crank sensor as this throws up all manner of wrong fault codes. Still tomorrows D day (i hope) if she runs well then were get her a wee bit more up together.
