I re-shaped one of the wings on the seats. In the first pic you can see the wing on the left wraps round more than the right (must be left hand drive seats ) making it difficult to get in the drivers side (passenger sides easier). I reshaped both seats the same and had them welded.

I had the suspension set up on Wednesday and found out I hadn't cut enough of the front arches out. The vans at the painters now having some bits touched up and its final buff and polish. Then on Thursday it's booked in for mapping. I'm hoping to get it mot'd for Saturday.

HELP .......

I went to have the van mapped yesterday but they couldn't do it as the TPS was only reading from 50-100% it had a constant 2.3v when there was no throttle applied. Also the ecu was reading -23 but the dash was reading 88 both use the same temp sender in the head. Has anybody any ideas before I start taking things apart Cheers

The only this I think it could be is the gauge of the wire is different?

I'm looking for a pair of doors for my pick up build I've got on the go and noticed you've changed yours, would you be interested in selling yours?

Back from the engine tuners a little disappointed. It managed 210.4 bhp, not as much as I was expecting / hoping for but ........
Anyway it's going for mot tomorrow so it can go on the road and sort any niggles out

Cheers
