Erattic running fault
Hi, i have a 1997 1.8i 406 and when i driving the K light comes on but the car runs ok but every now and again the car just dies right down and the k light goes out ,then wont pick up speed then suddenly picks up again then drives fine for a couple of days then the fault comes back.I have checked all the connections and all seems ok,any ideas?.Thanks

Re: Erattic running fault
You need a code read, could be lambda sensor fault, but the code read will tell you, the fault code should be stored if the light came on.
