check the injector wiring loom for signs of oil contamination. (The red plug on the ecu).

Check the front propshaft immediately !!! It could be that the u/j's are about to give way and if/when they do, they do a lot of damage !!!

Check for wear/lack of greasing in the front and rear u/j's of the front propshaft, seriously do it straight away if you want to save yourself a lot of heartache.

Good luck
Dave
