    injectors definitely done and you should have a receipt from SGL in Hull
    ECU is a PH1 16v ECU not the williams one but i have been reliably told that it is ok to use (info off the wc forum) wonder if thats why it kicks up the fault you get on diagnostics

    that will certinatly be the reason y the diagnostics wont connect lol.

    the original ECU died and could not get a williams one at the time so i posted on WC and was advised the PH1 16v ECU was ok to use with the correct chip i had no problems with OE or gunnerchip before or after fitting apart from the kangarooing, changing the CTS and cleaning ISCV sorted that have you been round all the earths checked and cleaned?

    I'm gonna join this thread rather than post on my other one.

    I fitted a brand new CTS and the car drives like a dream when cold. I was really enjoying myself right up to the point that the engine warmed up and then the kangarooing started. It makes it more embarrassing cus I've still got the Mongoose exhaust and everybody else knows about it too.

    I've tried flushing the ISCV and although it made the idle slightly better it hasn't cured the problem. A replacement ISCV (and exhaust) are on their way.

    I also noticed that Renault have CTSs back on RPD.

    New CTS and ISCV. Still got the problem.

    At least the Mongoose exhaust is being swapped for standard next week.

    I've changed a few parts and can say with confidence that it was the Lambda sensor...or the distributor cap, or the rotor arm and possibly related to the oil in the spark plug wells.

    Anyway. IT'S FIXED.

    Ahhh this might shed a little light on matters. Mine has oil in the plug wells and has similar kangarooing. It is going into the garage this week to get sorted so will report back with the results...

    Both of mine had this problem with oil in the plug wells I found that changing the rocket cover gasket and using hi temp sealant on both sides solves this problem.
    I had no problems with the way it was running though
    paddy16v told me this years ago and works a treat
