ep82 Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 Yeah. Hands down you you Rich!!!! However, started the car to pick my wife from work and it clicked 3 times before turning over again. I think I need to buy a thicker lead and create about 10 more earthing points (to be safe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 you got a new stat coming for it Chi? You'll use more fuel once you hit the open road mate, as the temp will drop down quite low, meaning the engine will assume it's still cold and throw in higher idle/more fuel. Deffinately sounds like it is an earthing problem, so that should be easy enough to cure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
