best bet when EML is on is to get it pluged in at a garage to be 100% sure on the problem

another problem was that the car wasnt tickingover right kept changing higher and lower so i adjusted the throttle cable and it seems to be perfect now and i realised that the airflow sensor was resting on the rockt cover !! so geting red hot may have caused it to fail ??? i sorted that out too hopefully should be ok now
