Excellent news ron
Concerning the throttle position (SEC Monitor) you just need to swap it to a 2wd or 4wd TPS in the menu settings.

Yeah but as long as you've not left the engine outside in the weather you shouldn't have any probs with it at all. In fact i've never known any of Joes engines to have any prob. A good friend of mine has had their car off the road for nearly 3 years now, due to some unforseen circumstances. That has one of his engines in and it hadn't moved for three years, we went over to it a couple of weeeks ago to move it to another lock up, we put a battery on it and it went first time on the button. So i'd say thats a very big to his work. By the way the car looks really nice!!

All you need to do is put ignition on so Monitor lites up and then press both red a green button together on top of steering wheel. This will take you into the set up menu just scroll down to tps and chnage it to wot your running.This can be done at anytime not just when ignition is first turned on.


I was running the 4wd TPS if your running the 2wd TPS I'm sure you need to switch the 2 outer wires around on the TPS plug

Yes mate you need to swap the 2 OUTER wires around and choose 2wd TPS in SEC monitor menu.

Glad to hear she be back on the road again soon where she belongs

And do you still want these rear lights ???

As the car was mine i feel it ok to answer

Ronnie (new owner) had his own plans for the car i think even before he bought mine so the texaco livery was no good for him. Which is a bitch as there were a twat to get off Lol and the reg no. i wanted so i transfered if off the car before Ron took ownership

exactly what stretch said, i knew what i wanted from the start and although it looked the bollocks with the stickers, i didnt want them, much to stretch's displeasure didnt ask to change the reg but he said he wanted to which works out ok, people won't recognise it as stretch's old car only got a few little bits to do now, then i can get it to joe ( gs motosport) and it will be with him for a while to get it set up and to go over it to make sure its all ok. then i can have some fun in it
