    Engine revs itself at Idle

    nut and bolt rebuild on everything except the engine! My first thought was a throttle position sensor of some kind

    Engine revs itself at Idle

    Hi guys, my car has picked up a fault. I have the ABS sensor and traction control light on. The issue is that it revs itself when sat at juntions. I sound like a right knob! the throttle just keeps picking up revving between 1500 and 2000 rpm. anyone had this before?

    Speedo Change

    I would like to change out my clocks because the previous owner put yellow dials in. I am assuming that the mileage on my car is stored in the ECU and not the clock itself. Does anyone know if that is true? or do I need to find clocks with mileage as close to mine as possible?

    Anyone got Genuine Old Springs?

    the reason they are hard to replicate is to do with the tapered thickness in the spring. It’s there for two reasons, firstly to so you don’t get spring bind and secondly to create a non-linear response. I had a Mark Fish spring tested today, they can be replicated, the tapered thickness makes...

    Anyone got Genuine Old Springs?

    Hi Guys, Still not having any luck here just wanted to flag this up to see if anyone had any? YB Racing don't sell the springs anymore. I have spoken with Mark Fish and he has been unable to help. If I can get the springs to copy I can get Faulkner to make genuine ones up, they will always...

    Would you swap for a Williams

    Ive owned a 205 GTI, Clio Williams and Trophy 243. Im not sure why the Williams is as revered as it is. The 205 GTI is more immersive, the Trophy better handling and engine. That being said the Williams was great to drive. Be careful though, I paid 1800 quid for mine and it was barely worth...
