Any EML on?

If not, double check the multiram valves are working...

I have a similar problem with mine, how do I check the valves are working?

Cheers

Can you confirm that the EML comes on when you turn on ignition then goes out once engine started.

Yes EML does come on when fired up .

Ok so I found the ram affair with the 2 stacks coming off . As I revved it untill cutting in and out the spring thing turned I tried pushing it with my finger and it would go no further . So do I strip tht 2 stacks off give a bit of lubrication to see if any better if not what is the next step .

Not gonna get it done till next weekend as off on hols 2moz till then . Again thanks for al the free advice  :y

If yours is 2.5 then it can do paperclip test.

19 = dead cert knackered crank sensor
31 if engine running = dead cert knackered crank sensor
31 if not running = indeterminate

(even Laidback66 agrees with that now ;))

Or try the paperclip test as EML is coming on. Do paperclip test with engine running if possible :y

What about Marks suggestion, blocked exhaust? How could you check that one?
