right, found a web site that tells you how to check the ecu for fault codes!!! did that and found a 1-3 and 3-2 fault code according to the site are phase/crank sensor and map sensor faults, according to this website the engine won't run with a phase/crank sensor fault but will with a map sensor fault but later on contradicts itself and says it won't run with a map sensor fault either....can anybody confirm this??? anyway, replaced the phase sensor with a brand new genuine item and still not right but slightly different in being that if you constantly pump throttle and get it 2 start it will then rev for a little holding throttle in 1 place then die off pick up again die off pick up then die completely. the phase sensor fault code now doesn't return but the map sensor fault code does, its also a brand new 3bar map sensor unfortunately purchased from ebay as the pipe connection on the old 1 had been broken off before i got the car. i suppose could b a dodgy sensor even tho new. should i buy another map sensor or can it b tested???
