Question

Sti8+ppp and 3k short of 20k service and it's starting to go like it did just before the 10k service. it's ok, but not bright a breezy - not rough, just offff

anyone got any quick service fixes a mechanical muppet can do before sunday ?

... or don't you think the "roughness" will make much difference over 1/4 mile ?

ECU Reset. Do a search and you will find how to do it

Let me see now, hmm, well its seems that your oil has done double the distance I would recommend without a change and you are contemplating ragging the engine over a 1/4 mile, pobably several times. Its also not as perky as before so something may not be quite right (petrol, MAF, knock, advance, blah blah) but you still want to run the car...

No, you're right, blast away, nothing to worry about, just turn the radio up if you hear something nasty! Everything will be taken care of by your warranty if things go wrong, OK?

PS are you a woman?
