Re: Alucard7002 - Mk2b 820Si Fastback - Pic Heavy!
Interesting diagnosis! Strange how it would still sort of drive with the "wrong" TPS? We haven't had the engine apart, so don't know when that happened. Looks like my classic friendly garage who changed the sump my have been a bit rustic on the old girl! You should have taken the spares turbo coupe ...
