zetec running rich
Hi everyone, I'm new to the site, I purchased this GTS Panther around about 8 weeks ago, it was fine for the first 2 weeks, and then I noticed
when I was going steady in 4th Gear it would start to miss a bit it's got a lot worse and now wont even tick over on idle, it looks like it is
running very rich, I took out the spark plugs and they were black and the sooty I've changed the lambda sensor and air temperature sensor and
the water temperature sensor and put new spark plugs in, this has still not cured the problem it's a 1.8 Zetec engine with electronic ignition
omex 600 ECU it was built by Eddie99 on here, any help would be much appreciated thank you

Have you checked the fuel pressure?

No I haven't, I bought a new fuel pump as the old one was noisy, went to fit it yesterday and it had a leak, so will have to order a new one
