    16v Q - First Minute Problem

    lambda wont perate whilst open loop fueling is occuring (cold start enrichment), it runs rich in order to get the engine and cat up to temp as quick as possible. Unpluging the CTS makes the ecu think that its crazy cold, it then ignores the lack of signal from it and reverts to base map...

    Valver Gearbox Problem

    I assume ps in this case is passenger side wheel? With the car jacked up the other wheel should rotate the opposiute way or if in nuetral it will stay still but if its in gear then the engine will turn, or it should. If its refurbed is it not still under a warrenty? Sounds like there could...
