Thanks guys!

Somehow I didn't get notification of any replys to this (yes, I checked the box) and have posted another question later.

I will certainly try the engine cover idea. I presume it is easy enough to get off?

Not having worked on cars much (since helping my Dad fix his 1959 Hillman Minx as a kid) I may be a little rusty!

Also what is a Tech 2?

Cheers!

Andy

From memory, 700 rpm is right for TD.

Its DBW, so no cable. Even if it did, do not bodge it by adjusting it on the cable, thats just being senseless.

Tech2 can do it, no other way.


As others have said, remove the cover over injectors and see if that cures.

Also, check the aux tensioner, and also check the PAS pump isn't loose ::)

Many thanks will try all these suggestions. Appreciate all the replies and ideas.

A Tech 2 is a computer you connect to the dignostics outlet which tells you of any problems and can also allow you to upgrade and adjust certain parts :).

Some members on here have a Tech 2, I am sure one of them near you will send you a PM.
