Hi all,

I've been a little quiet for a while on here, got the problem solved now!

On the way home from Brands at the beginning of the month, got about 10 miles from home, came off a roundabout and went into boost.....since then the car had a high idle at 2300 rpm :shock:

Just a tad high....

So these past few weeks tried a variety of things to find and solve the problem.... but with no joy :cry:

Was told by my 'new tuner' to hunt for a vacuum leak. So after looking for the obvious and still no joy prepared to remove the super charger today and reseal everything with new gaskets etc......

I then find a bolt missing on the underside of the inlet manifold... hence the high idle issue....... So a 5 pence bolt has caused me a nightmare of a month :roll:


So to say, I'm now back and running ok......

Mike


BTW, I think my car maybe featured in another mag this or next month as a project car :wink:
