98bhp s reg ?

[LiamB2]

Ello all, am new to the site and just got me saxo at the weekend its a Vtr s reg. My question is its got a 98 bhp engine in which i thought did not start untill 2001 i think, i thought it might have been remaped but the previous owner i bought it of said its a silver top 98 bhp engine that they started doing in some phase 1's but i only just found out that 98bhp engines have a 3 plug ecu, mine has the 1 plug version its got no mods to the engine but it came with a rr recept with 99.8bhp on it, the other thing is the ecu light come on every now and then and the previous owner said he had it checked in with citreon and they found nothing wrong with it, and the it runs fine u get the odd little judder but not that often, so if anybody could help me or any idea that would be great many thanks all :thumbup:

its a 90bhp engine maybe just a good one or rubbish rollers

[LiamB2]

Any idea bout the ecu light mate?

[Sean]

fault in the injection system, could be a number of things. you need to get it on a diagnostic computer

[LiamB2]

Cheers guys gonna get it booked in for one. Does anyone know how to reset the ecu yourself?

[Scott]

unplug the ecu or the battery for an hour

[LiamB2]

Just noticed the seems to judder every now and then, its not likea loss of power just a small little judder could this maybe be the timing? as you can tell I dont know much about engines.

[Scott]

sounds like its misfiring possibly coilpack

what was the wheel figs?

[LiamB2]

Been driving about a bit today and noticed it only seems to do a few little judders when u first start driving when the engine is cold but after bout 5-10 mins its fine. wheel figs??

[Ratty]

yes in order to get power at the engine you must measure the power at the wheels, then you can guess the wheel figures, and we can see if hes give you an exagerated figure or not.

Silly question how do i do that mate
