Steve Q Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I'd recommend getting it back to the garage that did the work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark b7 Posted May 31, 2023 Author Share Posted May 31, 2023 Thankyou Steve could the smell be coming from the fuel pressure sensor it is 17 years old is the p0089 code related to the sensor. I supplied the parts to a garage for them to fit it was £200 labour two hours after getting car back car started misfiring again I found out a new injector had stuck open so I got a replacement had to £200 again to fit injector car has been ok for six weeks until I did a motorway run . The next day driving to work I could smell fuel for a short while then it went then on way home from work I could smell it again only for a short while looks like I’m going to pay another £200 to take off the manifold again the car is a money pit but I can’t bring my self to get rid of it I have spent so much money on this car .

Steve Q Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Could it be an issue with the fuel rail itself? I know that feeling. I'm sentimental about mine and about to embark on a very expensive engine rebuild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
