Wooooooooohoooooooo

The Sun is out finally! I've had the day off work and managed to get out for a cheeky drive

I got pretty fed up with how the car was running by the time I got home, so unplugged the tps last night with the engine still running.... Bit of a stutter but then kept running.

Anyway I left it unplugged, and it's heaps better! The throttle feels sharp and linear rather than lumpy and leggy as before, and crucially the heavy engine braking off throttle is gone! As with the jerk when coming off throttle.


It still has a bit of a numb spot at the top of the throttle, but I'm almost certain that's the fact that the sensor is unplugged as it feels the same as when I ask forgot to plug it in....!


So I think I've cured it! I'll run it without the tps until I can get a new one as it just feels so much better, but tyeah happy days


Hopefully I'll get some time in the next couple of weeks to give it another wash with my new pressure washer too, then I'll chuck some pics up


Mot time on 4th March too....! :S
