Well its been an eventful day in the world of the saxo.

I picked up some new seats today, Corbeau Targas from Farry on here along with some sabelt harness'. So they will be going in tomorrow.

I also found my lost power lol, when it was on the dyno it only made 157.7, I have found out why. Cylinder 2 was losing compression through the spark plug so I tightend it up and the car ran and sounded much better.

BUT...since coming back from collecting the seats something has happend to the car, I dont know what but it sounds like shite, and the idle has started to bob up and down a bit which it has never done before. Also has started running rich the majority of the time and slight smell of petrol when stationary. I really dont know what it could be?

One of the bolts on the inlet manifold has fallen off, so the inlet might not be sealed so I will sort that tommorrow but surely that wouldnt cause all the problems above?
