Thanks CT very comprehensive. You put "Running Lean" did you mean that or was it a typpinng error? The guy told me that the fault indicator was "Running Rich".

I have a Haines Manual and it is quite good but it is a bit complex for me.

The car runs normally (quite good for over 120,000 miles) and seems fine. She is a bit 'smelly' (of fuel) when I start her up on very cold mornings but I guessed that was something like an automatic choke, but soon returns to normal when warmed up. Interestingly, I had the French equivelent of the MOT Test (which is quite strict), done in November and there was no problems with emissons, passed with flying colours.
