Damn! Finished yesterday, wanted to take her for a spin today then this happens!
Just check the spark leads detaching them didn't make a difference, also reset the ECU, still nothing
Any ideas?

are the revs low? maybe an earth missing somewhere? Throttle Position Sensor?

Revs are between 600 and 900 rpm idd quite low, as for earth missing, I would like to think not since I installed a HKS grouding kit, but will check again tomorrow... as when I go outside today I feel like I'm melting

It's under-revving might be the vacuum sensor, will check tomorrow, friend of the other forum implied that might be why she's running so inconstant. It goes from 600 to 900 to 800 etc. rpm, while it should be between 1000 and 1200 on a cold start.

It should be a little higher on a cold start, but as low as 600 rpm is normal once it has warmed up!

you checked the piping going to the map sensor? check any vac lines behind the inlet manifold?

It was the vac-sensor... apparently the tube had come off... reconnected the tube and all runs smooth again yay! Time for the mirrors I'd say

Thanks BTW... sorted ALL the wires for the folding mirrors... these are now a fact! OH YEAH!! But the caps are unfortunately damaged in storage, so need to have them repainted somewhere in the near future I suppose. Also I need to find a way to get my view back, since here in NL we drive on the right side of the road
It's not so much a problem for me, but the GF kinda demands me modifing them so the view is correct for NL.

I will provide a wiring diagram of the mirrors asap, need to find a tool in which I can easily make a diagram... So if anyone knows of a nice and easy to use (free) tool?
Furthermore I've made soms pics and fitted the rearlip (no pics of this yet), still not as tight as I would like it to be, but will be working on it later on again
