I was thinking it was an O2 sensor issue on one bank due to the data log showing it was misfiring under a lean condition on one bank. I showed the Tech the data I had and he agreed so I need to get a sensor ordered up
Pretty happy though ! I have now covered just over 1000 miles in the last week due to taking it away up north with me to work through the week deliberatly to put some miles on the new engine and I have to say I am very very happy |
You're the MAN SS, I'm envious and in awe of your confidence and ability to take an M96 and treat it like a short block rebuild.
FYI There are O2 sensors that can be cut and soldered to fit at a fraction of the OEM costs, do a search or perhaps someone will drop the part numbers in this thread, enjoy the Boxster!
