ive not checked my heated seat fuse, but car was set up a year ago and hardly been used so assume it is ok, also another problem, it now boosts to 12 psi instead of standard set up and 7psi i got it set up for (turbosystems chip) also has a -31, is this ok, it wont be doing any harm at 12psi with a chip will it? (think the amal valve may of packed in, would this cause the raise in boost?) also when boost is brought in hard it hesistates and pops n bangs well it did but seemed fine the other day

Pop and bangs - spark blowing out or verging on overboost??

plugs and leads look shite, it DEFFO needs a new set of leads, i thought this might be the problem

also forgot i fitted a2nd hand tank (which didnt leak ) but it had surfice rust inside, i know i should of cleaned it out but heind sight is a great thing and i fitted it but the car runs perfect apart from this and has a new fuel filter, which i will replace once i fill the tank a couple of times.

the reason for vent to amosphere is so all the shit does not go back to the metering head, and mine ticks over better , what i should have realy is a catch tank
