    starts spot on then when warm runs high idle

    Thanks for that, don't allthat and all ok. Removed the stepper thingy, cleant it and replaced. Started and ran for ten minutes and seemed ok. Took it for a drive and idle really high as before. Is it worth changing the stepper thingy.how does it work? Could it be the timing being a tad out?

    starts spot on then when warm runs high idle

    As title. starts first turn, ticks over a tad high at 1k, but after its driven a few miles the revs on idle are about 2k. its a 3.9 v8 on petrol and gas. It does the same on either. I have searched and searched but to no exact match of the problem. ive had a look at the vacuum hoses and all...

    My series has 2 spots on the front A bar. Have changed these to 4 on a roof bar but!!!. Took power from orig to the four so that they only came on on main beam and go off when on dip. Wouldnt turn off on dip, oh bugger old ones did. ****ed around for a bit then front headlights stopped working...

    The Parabolic lean

    You chaps running the GB springs, are any of you running a v8 with a lt 95 box. I just want to make sure that the weight of them , makes no difference to the spring loading. I changed springs from side to side today :(, no difference. All chassis measures up spot on, so theres no trouble there...

    Gear selection problem

    Thanks fellas, im gonna bleed the clutch on monday. Its a bit strange actually, as if i just drive forward it gives me no trouble at all. Its only if the first gear i have to use is reverse. But once it goes into gear its fine for the just of the time. There is no whining or grating or nothing...
