I’m still trying to solve my issue. I’m considering this option to allow me to enjoy my car... I’m planning on a trip to the ring next September ! Next step is to dismount/remount all the connectors... Thanks ! |

Did you inspect the front and back of the connector? Could be a bad contact or crimp.

update :
Redid some of the welds on the board, added a ground on the E% sensor side, no luck Since there are much more drops occurring for the 1st 2 min after a cold start, I checked my fuel pump. Car has 30k, with 20 on ethanol, and my pre-pump filter looked like this : ![]() So replacing it immediately jumped on top of todo list... Did not dismounted/remounted all the connectors yet. |

Wait, what's going on here? Has the fuel been dirty? Is this an issue with ethanol?

I guess... and it might disturb fuel feeding and ethanol content reading (again, just a -wild- guess...)
I imagine ethanol cleans the fuel stations system pretty good and we get the gunk in our car. Other possibility (the super scary one ^^) is that it’s the car fuel system that’s being eaten by the ethanol ! Last edited by nkobns; 08-22-2020 at 05:58 PM. |
