Hi,

Just joined the forum, I´m based in Spain recently bought a P reg Largo with intention of travelling around Europe.
Only problem is it stalls under load ie, when in full lock or if air con switched on also in in R and D.
Can be a bit scary considering I;m already on wrong side of road lol!

I´ve cleaned the air splitter it was blocked solid with crud, replaced the fuel filter can;t change disgusting air filter at the moment as not available in Spain

Gearbox oil looks clean help!!!

Replace your air filter with an induction kit. I don't know about in Spain but eBay UK has R33 induction kits for around £18 delivered. They just fit straight on the induction pipe once you remove the old filter housing.

Here's the eBay UK item for reference.

Thanks for that I'll try both the crank sensor and change the air filter

Hi
Spain being Spain no-one lists the Crank position sensor so if anyone has OE numbers available it would be greatly appreciated.

I did a code reading and got 15, 18 and 21 which point at fuel quantity position sensor...now totally lost lol!
