SOS Calling all Cambridge owners
Anyone in Cambridge about to give a fellow Scoobie nutter a hand? there's a few quid in it......or couple of drinks.
I just want to try and find out whats wrong with me scoob and me mates know even less about cars than me.
If by chance any ones interested I've posted the problem on general and tech.
Cheers
Gary

I can plug in my ECUTEK delta dash diagnostics if it helps - or do you know the problem already?

Sounds like a flash bit of kit, if you don't mind that would be great
, I think the problem may be the MAF as the engine still ran when I removed it,
but then I'm no mechanic so it would be good to know for shore.

I would look to replace the MAF just in case though.

It appears as though it may have done the job as the revs went from 1500 down to about 500 when I first pulled away this morning then stayed around 5-8 when sitting at lights etc, gave it a quick blast last night (probably not a good idea but couldn't help it
) I'm going to try and get down to Extreme on sat and get a MAF whilst I'm there....Love your car by the way you'll have to take me for a spin some time. Big HI to everyone else that was there sore some nice cars and when 4 of you left at once, wow what a sound!

A spin can be arranged
