My go 1.2l model is very heavy on petrol when you start is it smokes and smells of petrol. I have changed all the sensors and and the oil and the spark plugs its still the same. It looks like my injectors is not spraying out like it should be could that be the problem?

Hello,

This sounds like you have a weak fuel pump which makes the spray pattern of the injectors weak. Please check the fuel pressure and get back to us,

Here is a guide to give you an idea on what to do.

Please let us know what happens.
