I know some are and some arent on the xe, but not looked on a let. If you can it should be adjusted just before it clicks when the throttle is closed.

I think on the LET like the later dizzyless XE on Motronic 2.8 the TPS are variable not just on/off like the earlier XE's .Quote:

Hope all is going well with the rebuild :thumb:

I got a new TPS sensor today but its not solved the problem. I removed the tophat to check if the throttle body was jammed open or something, but it's all fine. I think its most likely the Idle Control Valve now, so i'm going to try cleaning that in the next few days.
Today I worked on bleeding the brakes, got them done fairly quickly and the pedal is now nice and hard :)

I cleaned half the rubbish out of the interior, need to give it a hoover soon. I'm just waiting on a few more dash bits before I bolt it down tight. I'm also stuck on where to mount the ECU!

My sill protectors, not to everyones taste, but I like them and they are a 1 off.

I also moved my water pipe, I just need a T piece now to join everything behind the tophat, I wont be able to test the ICV until I do this.

And the car up on axel stands now until I get everything finished.

Until next time...

Looks really good mate - Fearless Strut Brace looks good, front one will look awsome as well :)
Stunning as ever.
For a neat way of mounting the ecu take a look at Simps old nova turbo thread.
He bolted his to the underside of the battery tray so you cant see it at all from inside the car.
But it would mean drilling holes in your shell
or fabricate something out of alloy and bond it to the underside of the battery tray and fasten the ECU to that.

No probs with it since - easy to remove.
a good way to find out if it is the icv thats causing high idle is to start the motor then nip the pipe with your fingers that comes from the icv to the tophat, if it drops to idle or even lower then you know its the icv at fault
Thanks matthew, your a legend, it worked so i'm going to replace the ICV :)Quote:
