    yeah it almost got broke for parts, luckily the main bits like engine, wheels, exhaust were kept and it all got a major overhaul and re-build.

    it will idle, but its too low ( about 550 rpm) so i need to raise it some how, if i rest my foot on the accelerator it sits lovely at 900ish but id rather find the actual problem than just wind the cable up a bit!

    been and cut out some bits of the loom from a scrappy today to try and re-do some wiring.

    engine bay is in bits atm.

    Actually, rings a bell now.

    On my old Cinq I had a low idle.
    I took the inlet apart and put some paste gasket on a square like spacer, it did the trick too.
