Jerking around problem
At around 2000rpm in 3rd or 4th gear the the car jerks back as if the fuels being cut, the afr jumps round to the red zone 15.5 to 17!
Ive a new fuel regulator and i tried a couple of 3bar map sensors and its still the same.
Any ideas as im scared to drive it now so not to do any damage ?

it may be the throttle position then Ste, its not cutting the fuel off when it should, fuel still going in and the car is trying to go.

Ive set the tps a few times Dave but its still the same, its as if the fuel is cutting off as the afr goes very lean.
Replaced the tps aswell.
