Re: Resetting Lambda switch,

[jtrealty@xxxx]

You do impress too easily! Let me further impress you. The "special" 
tool can be recreated in seconds with just your fingers and a paper 
clip. Straighten it out then bend into a U shape and presto you have a 
lambda reset tool. The lambda counter was supposed to be tamperproof 
so you need a mechanic to reset it something like the Mercedes oil 
reminder light, there you need a $60 plug to shut the damm light off!
