Cornwall meet 27th January
I was down at the watering hole yesterday and they are undertaking some major alteration works, although still open, so not sure of capacity. but may be finished by then. Still plenty of other pubs, restaurants etc. Suggest we play it by ear on the day?

Cornwall meet 27th January
I think Perranporth best place to meet, as large carpark and more to do, shops other restaurants and pubs in town, can always convoy along coast into Newquay after! Might need to bring your snow plough! boat, ice breaker depending on the weather. Contacted John in Falmouth and he is up for it in his newly acquired zed. hvae not heard back from others yet

If its in safe mode, more than likely MAF ( AFM ), best to get one from somebody on here that knows its OK, nothing worse than gatting a part thats duff as well, usually about £80/90. Try andyzed at supercarparts.

Newbie - engine sounds horribly tappety
Another thing to try, which worked on mine before doing anything expensive is go down to harry Halford and get some lifter lube, about £6 and try that. it may take a few hundred miles to work but it did the job on mine. I just add some more each time I do oil change.

my bet is still the drain tube from the Targa, pour some water down the hole and see where it comes out or dare I say heater matrix?
