    That makes me giggle, which is a VERY rare thing!

    Glad to see you've updated :D

    lambdas more likely, I had that on my 328 , had to replace two then was all good after.
    Are they new? if not give them a new lease of life with some brake cleaner dude. probably caked in shit after running rich
