help help help......
does anybody out there know what else i can try.Tried the actuater that sticks but moving freely no problem there i dont think.had mechanic look at it was previously lotus mechanic,but no joy. Really struggling to find problem. Diagnostic check with wire tells me code 13 lambda censor but hasnt got one.so totally stuck. when driving if feels just like when a pipe came off,but nothing off that i or mechanic could see.The more you accelerate the slower it seems to go where as if you are soft it picks up better

PLEASE CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME BEEN OFF ROAD NOW SINCE XMAS

Sounds like fuel starvation. I'm no expert, can anyone help?

I don't think the open loop ECU should set an oxygen sensor code. I'd take a look at the ECU and associated wiring and re-read the code to make sure its definitely a 13 you're getting. ElanScan is always worth a go in this situation.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to sit on your arse with a blank look on your face.
