The full text does not specify waiting until the various warning lights have extinguished themselves after switching on ignition, but I would suggest not depressing the throttle (item 2) or start timing until they have.

Number 1 sets the minimum throttle (tickover) number 2 sets the maximum. The no throttle setting (tickover or lower value) is 350/650mv whilst full throttle (upper value) is typically 3,100/3,300mv.

Apparently, the management system strategy gradually reduces the full throttle value by 5mv (for the next switch-on) every time the ignition is turned on (whether engine started or not) UNLESS full throttle is applied for 5 seconds at least once in that cycle (eg climbing a steep hill with full throttle etc). Therefore, under certain circumstances, the full throttle setting will gradually reduce leading to over sensitivity at the pedal. The manual reset procedure restores the upper and lower values to their default design settings.

1) Reset the mechanical zero position
– Put gear lever in neutral
– Switch on ignition (to MAR position) but do NOT start the engine
– Do not touch the throttle pedal for 2 minutes
– Switch off ignition

2) Reset the mechanical Full Throttle position
– Put gear lever in neutral
– Switch on ignition (to MAR position) but do NOT start the engine
– Fully depress throttle pedal and hold for 5 seconds
– Release throttle pedal completely
– Switch off ignition

Yes,you think worth trying?

Cheers I will have a look during the week

I think it is ok to just put it up on day but will drop them to confirm this is the case / ok.

Good to see a few people have already booked up for this!

Have used eurospares many times and have always been pleased with service.

I have used HR Owen a couple of times (for more obscure help) and they have always been very helpful.

With the Festival Italia this weekend I thought it would be worth a quick post to say that i’m looking forward to meeting up with you and that the club stand will be located on Colin Chapman Way, behind the Brabham Stewart Building. Apparently we will be lined up in a single row (but this could always change). As such I thought it worth giving some thought to how we arrange the cars. This is just a thought and i’m not precious about it / not always possible on the day but have attached an image showing something that might show the models and colours in a nice way.

We had space for 20 cars but currently it seems mine will not be attending – but if i can resolve the issue or if i find someone who wants my spot ……

[Lee Moore]

Just over a week to go!

[Lee Moore]

Good point – I have applied to join your hub too. Good luck with it.

[Lee Moore]

Looks like all the spaces have now been filled which is great, hopefully will be a good event again and I look forward to catching up with / meeting everyone.

[Lee Moore]

Good to see these are gaining some momentum, like Tony I have created a Facebook page for Kent & Surrey HERE and also a Instagram account so please feel free to take a look and any input would be greatly appreciated. We obviously have the Festival Italia event at Brands Hatch next month and it might be nice to arrange some social meets going forward.
