thottle body service.
« on: 17 March 2015, 17:31:16 »

hi all.

just had my throttle body cleaned .there was a small breather hose that was leaking. the kind man taxi al did the work . it has cured no end of problems, such as bad starting/rough tick over/lumpy gear change/ and strong smell of oil fumes in the car. all cured down to 1 pipe and that's only with a makeshift job till I get new hose from vx. and if you read this al I checked bolts all tight still and checked oil on flat totally spot on the mark. well pleased with the difference in the way its running now. :y :y
