Hi folks. Seem to have traced my overfuelling issue. If I unplug the Air Floe Meter all runs fine. Question is, is it safe to run around with it unplugged for a few days? And can I clear the codes by leaving the battery off for a couple of days or does it require to plug it in to a reader. Don't think there is a problem with the sensor as it was fine up till I had the brake servo and Vac pump changed over. Hmmm??

Anyone clear this up for me please.


Thanks in advance folks.

i would leave it plugged in even tho it is faulty.

its there for a reason. unpluging it will probably make the overfueling worse

thats if it was my motor.

itl be reet unpluged for abit,
if it was a petrol itd send the emisions sky high,

Mpg will drop abit tho

Thanks for the reply lads. Plugged it back in and everythings working fine. Weird. Ah well, ill just count my lucky stars and hope it was just a fremlin which has worked itself out.

Might just have been a bit of contamination / oxidisation of the connector contacts - surprising how often you can 'fix' these by disconnecting / reconnecting a few times.

Regarding fault codes, you can't clear them without the reader, but with this type of fault, several fault-free journeys will normally turn off the EML light.
