RRFPR Problem

[steve-gers]

There seems to be a lack of replies on tgtt these days so I think I'll be posting on here from now on.

Got a rrfpr fitted to my car and was all setup for correct afr but today whilst under the bonnet I checked the nut at the top and it was loose. There is a normal nut close to the body of the rrfpr and a kinda rounded style one on the top of that (which was the loose one) I think this is just the locking one? So i just tightened it down to the normal nut to stop it moving. Will it be ok or will I need to get it checked as I don't think there are any garages near me that check afr's.

Sounds like the locking nut but to be on the safe side i would have the AFR's checked.

The other nut hasn't moved I don't think but yeah should possibly get it checked to make sure. Would a gas tester at an MOT station give me a rough idea with the reading or not? If it was detonating due to lack of fuel would the engine management light come on or what symptoms would there be? Paranoid now even though the car drives just the same lol.

the top domed nut is just a finisher to make it look pretty instead of having the screw head. as long as the lower nut is still tight you shouldn't have any problems.

I know what you mean about TGTT, its gone really shit lately, no organised events, hardly any news updates and like you said no one replying to anything other than the moderators,UKSC for the win!!

Ok thanks for all the replies put my mind at ease a bit, think i'll still take it easy until I get it checked though to be safe. Yeah alot more action over here plus I'm from the UK anyway so makes sense.
