Diagnostic results.. please explain!!
lookin to get myself a cheap vtr, stick it on my drive and correct whatever problems it has and enjoy the experience of making it my own.
one im looking at has a problem with engine management. i dont mind getting stuck in cus it will be a decent experience. it has the following results from a diagnostic test;
Diagnostics Test:
156 - O2 sensor circuit front
104 - Ignition Cylinder 1 & 4 circuit
106 - Ignition Cylinder 2 & 3 circuit
can anyone elaborate on that for this n00b?

good thing is, lambda sensors are cheap enough to pick up but first worth finding out which one, 2nd lambda could lead to the cat being faulty - which is not so cheap (althouh i have paid as little as £26 for a new one)
coilpacks are also another easy and cheap source. whilst your at it, for the sake of £1.50 each, id change the plugs too.
EDIT : just seen you have 02 sensor front, so pre cat.
this will be reading the readings direct from the engine - i would advise a change of plugs and coil pack and plug in again.

tell him scrap value £140 and see where it lands you
you cant fail at £200 as it "should" break for more if its not a pig, but thats your time and storage expense...tell him that
he obvioulsy hasnt got time or knowledge or it wouldnt be fucked with no t&t
