   i dont have a lambda on my conversion. it was just cut off and its never gave me any problems. maybe i would get better mpg if i had one but who knows. mine runs good anyways

   the lambda on my manifold only serves as a plug and doesn't do anything. the wires are well chopped

   On the talk of missing sensors does anyone know what the sensor under the inlet manifold is cause im missing one and I think this is why my revs slightly go up and down constantly

   ^^^^^ dude that is the lambda sensor as far as i no, im havong mine replaced tonight as well as the coolant temperature sensor, as mine does the same... Check the icv, give it a good clean, If that fails, replace, bit with a named brand, not a ebay one as they are crap !

   no probs mate. It could be something else. Im just going through all the possible causes for mine idling funny and stalling. Iv don't icv, it weren't that, so now Im onto the sensors. Coil pack next, then ecu. If Iys none of them, Ill jump all over it !!! Haha.

    Did you ever discover the cause for the stalling/idling?
