hello all

[omally]

just to say hello all,
i just got myself a 1999 multispace 1.4 petrol in metallic blue, it looks good for its age, and only 80000 in the clock,
i will be looking for a few bits that it need like driver seat, that the metal of the chair is digging on me, it doesn't got a bit of rust believe me that i look for it, but nothing.
and i will be looking for advice or your experiences. thank you in advance.
:wave:

Hi & welcome.:wave:

[omally]

thank you all for welcome,
i went to do test, and disappointing, fail!

a few things it was a simple fix (what it thought)
like the tire specification on rear axle (different size, that i didn't noticed) that i just sorted,
registration lamps one not working, the other one temperamental, first i thought it was the light bulbs, but when i replaced them it was no difference, if finished pulling out the whole wiring loom of the door, and on the flexy bit that goes from the door to the body it had many cables broken (that explained the temperamental behavior of the rear wiper that the tester thought it was unusual, now fixed too,

now the other bit, that i had no idea how to tackle

fail in emissions, it says:

exhaust emissions
at low idle (890 rpm) temperature 86 degrees

CO 0.38% is a fail if above 0.50%
HC 149 ppm

at high idle (2.800 rpm)

lambda 1.05 is a fail if not between 0.97 and 1.03 (FAILED)
CO 0.62 vol% if is above 0.30% is a fail (FAILED)
HC 256 ppm if is above 200 ppm is a fail (FAILED)

can you guys give me an idea of how to fix this?

many thanks

Are the plugs & air filter good? You could try running Forte or similar through it.:wave::thumbsup:
