Guest peterw1983 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I have had a engine diagnostic test run on the car and they have told me the engine speed sensor is faulty ( hopefully if i locate it and change it the car will stop stopping at junctions ) so if some one can tell me where it is or send me a pic of what it looks like would be most grateful cheers again pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
