Thanks. Injectors is a possible I guess. However, the car also has LPG and the same issue happens on LPG. Hence I figured it must be air related. The PCV flowing at idle seems to be significant?

I've been battling a lean on bank 1 code for a little while now. So far I've (in no particular order):
Had the inlet in pieces and rebuilt with new gaskets from the head up.

It's a preformed pipe and has a "Y" connection in it that means you would struggle to make one. I think Rimmer Bros have an aftermarket one at only a mildly extortionate price.

| The knuckle on the end of the driveshaft can be replaced fairly easily (excepting that they rust into the splines!). I did mine. Rob. |
