Lambda sensor is probe attached to the front pipe.
Worth disconnecting the lambda sensor see if it runs better.
The connector is above the rear engine mount.

They about 50-70 quid from gsf etc.
Try disconnecting the sensor first if it runs better without the sensor then you know thats the problem.

You dont have to get under car.
The connector to lambda sensor is on the left hand side of engine bay should be near the master cylinder its a oblong connector just disconnect that and run engine.
