well, it's bad news. only 97bhp. turns out the injectors are out of synch so low on power. got to 107 but still need the injectors sorting as they said it's fueling is terrible. plus a fault code reading p0036 h02s heater control circuit bank 1 sensor 2. any ideas on what and more importantly, how much it costs to fix?

injectors are out of sync ... :s would that be the CPS or crank sensor... for timing and stuff ... how do you mean out of sync?

like duty cycle isnt long enough, or they fire incorrectly like pot 1 instead of 4

pressure imbalance. thinking of taking the old injectors off the other engine and swap them over until i can get the others sorted. just need to solve the fault codes and fix whatever's wrong. annoying. just got the new engine and it's playing up already. gonna speak to the supplier to see if they're willing to pay for repairs. not paying to have it removed, returned and a replacement fitted.

sure if its imbalance on individual injectors then check the flow rate, they might need to be cleaned, or better still jetted ;)

the guy at the garage said it's probably the metal catch basket in the injector rusting as the new engine sat for a while.
