:D Not a clue which is the strange thing....took the ecu out today as Andyvalver suggested to reset it. After dossing about with the 5 annoying bolts/nuts to get the thing out, left it a few hours stuck it back in. Went very slowly/coasting to the petrol station (new PB 106 miles on a tank! lol) running on fumes.
As soon as I put my foot down a little I could feel there seemed to be more resistance on the pedal, instant torque and better throttle response where before it was pretty gutless... Took the long way home! :twisted:
Might go for willy track& coilovers now...hehe

Kent2002RN 260 degree ones, same mofo's as 2 lives... that duration seems to be the best on these engines, reason why I also went for similar ones :twisted:
Martin
17-05-2005, 19:38

Craig
18-05-2005, 20:47
whoohoo!!

glad its back to full strength mate!!!

i reckon uv passed ti onto me pal, the scooby is not running right! only feels about 80% of the power under full throttle! changing plugs this weekend!

bloody cars!
Martin
18-05-2005, 20:58
Aye you take it for granted when they run right....but they are a right blag when something goes wrong specially when you don't know whats up!
Craig
18-05-2005, 21:16
aye tell me about it mate! not had a single prob since iv had it, but its just hesitant at full throttle and feels like its holding back.

its a bitch tho, its like a woman, unless u give it expensive parts like the most pricey bastard plugs, oil, leads etc then it spits its dummy out and runs like a dog!

im hoping its just plugs! got some today after ringing round loads of places. They were £19 each in most places!! never rate that!
