Hi,

I've not got to the bottom of my 111s issues yet so I wouldn't put myself if the expert category.... but I think the Elise 111s has one difference over the MGF VVC.

Lotus did a recall in c. 2001 and fitted a misfire detection system. It's located on the LHS of the boot and is labelled 'EFI Technologies'. I've not managed to get any information on the exact workings of the system but it loops into the cars loom using a supplementary harness in three locations:

Lambda sensor connector
Fuel injection connector
Coil pack connectors (1 and 2)

It monitors misfire conditions and cuts the power (limit 5,500 rpm) and illuminates the dash light if there are issues. Pscan obviously can't read this system but you may have an issue there.
