You 100% need the cam locking bar and the crank locking pin. Far too easy to loose the timing otherwise, other than that its just a b*****d of the job due to lack of access really.
^ I'm guessing its a 172 engine and they don't know it yet. Still for what difference it makes.
What are you planning doing for management? Or have you got the ecu/uch/decoder ring/key from the donor car? Loom looks to be in a bit of a state?
Pull the ABS/ESP fuse and it still does it so I guess its got nothing to do with the speed pulse? Trapped wire?
Can't really think of anything else it'd effect while moving only.
Right, found out a key symptom. It only does it when the car is moving as i've said before but if you park the car on a hill in neutral the idle will sit properly, take the handbrake off and the car will start rolling the idle will start wandering (haven't touched the pedals or put it in gear)...
Wasting your time with a powercap, get an uprated battery.
Before anyone moans search around on here (http://www.talkaudio.co.uk/) if you want to know why they're crap.
If you retro-fit xenons you'll still have the manual leveling on the dash. A proper xenon fit car will not have the dial and have the adjuster on the back axel.
This is why they won't be "legal" as there'll be no auto leveling and no washers.
I've tried another pedal but it was a normal non rs one so I wouldn't mind borrowing the pedal again if you dont mind. Will pm you. Trouble is i've got no resistance values for the pedal at closed and wide open throttle so the only way to test is substitution.
Its weird though, was fine for 6...
Yep probably a Type R. Can't be done with this crap, just seems to be one little fault after another at times. Don't really want to get rid but i've got a bad feeling this may end up being a new ecu which I won't be paying for.
Anywho, back on topic please :rasp:.

Leading on from that the problem has developed and tbh i'm now absolutely stumped, have tried everything I can think of.
Basically the problem will present itself when the engine is cold and when just driving around town/normal driving...
Actual cam phasing no i'm not, looking through the docs I believe it is not limited by engine temp and that it functions all the time the engine is 1800-6500rpm.
I am 100% sure that its water temp not oil temp for the higher limiter and the other associated functions as theres no oil temp...
Try changing the interior temp sensor. Is the only thing I can think of why it wouldn't change the heat on the fly because it doesn't know the interior temp so it doesn't know whether to go hotter or cooler.
The mixing flap stepper motor obviously works otherwise it would be stuck on one temp...
He means since the works been done. Doesn't matter anyway as they'll only read dashes for 1 mile after resetting and it shouldn't flash unless somethings wrong.
Take it back and get them to sort it, it'll be related they will have forgotten to initialise something. Or set the ECU up for a none...
What good is that going to do? It'll jump forward on the starter whether the cambelt is bust or not.
Because the starter engages onto the flywheel? He means it'll turn over quickly on the starter due to no load on it because of lack of compression after bending the valves.
