My car was flooding easily due to excess fuel being pumped through as sensor was reading as car was always cold. Some times had to leave it for 10 mins before restarting etc.

Just white smoke out back not blue/black.

cost :£75 at vaux for sensor and fitting.

Map sensor is an essential sensor. Thats probably your problem, it will need to be fixed anyway!

Have a look back in this thread and see what my last comment was....

Could be Dan....But vaux charged me £25 to diagnose the fault and £45 to fix it..

Aye rough idle
over fueling
white smoke
jumpy when cruising along
flooding plugs..

I thought £75 was reasonable to..
