Well the steering wheel is on the proper side :-) (1) And while I'm here I may as well ask this(2): any ideas why my car should stall when I put it into neutral? Happens mainly after a prolonged run on the motorway/dual carriageway only. Has never happened whilst just driving around town. (1) I don't really know the value of your car, I do however know that I did score a bargain :-) (2) I know that I have just set myself up for a fall -- Michael r1100rs(****ed) | z400 'fot#125 | twa#5 | flo#10 crashes without the help of microsoft

Hi,
if its a digifant the cold start is actually an Idle Stabilisation Valve which manages the tickover as well as cold starting. Could be the ISV, the blue temp sensor which controls it or any thing else in the digifant system. Checkout Ken's page http://members.tripod.com/~fuelie/ Ken is King! if its not a digifant, just ignore me as I don't know nuffink about CIS! Cheers RIch
