Anyway, I've set it a little too close so it occasionally comes in when spanking it. I'll still be tracking it if there's space free but I may not get time to fix the throttle issue before then.

Apart from that it drives mint, considerably better than the standard car. Smoother, quieter, easier to drive because it pulls from 1000 rpm now where before it just made more noise and didn't go anywhere. Just a faint whistle and a little wheeze when backing off to change gears. So far it doesn't appear to use much, if any, more fuel either. I can't tell 100% yet because I haven't used a full tank to compare mileage but it certainly isn't bad.

Well pleased with it. :-)
Sound job, look forward to having a look round it! Do i need to bring a helmet!!!!
