Sensor went in with zero drama, and what a difference! The car pulls like a train now, up hill and down dale, with zero misfires whatsoever. Hurrah!
Would that be the Bosch sensor Phil as advised elsewhere by (i think) LPTJoe?

I fitteed an Intermotor one to mine (it's one of the few parts shared with the red block) and just lately, it's been giving a slightly uneven idle, slight missing under load unless cold, i knnow it dropped the CO content considerably so i tweaked the pot on the MAF, slight but no real improvement. Seriously thinking i need to go down the Bosch sensor route.
