Title: CD needed + towing performance
Post by sector-9 on Jul 4^th, 2007, 6:57pm

Can anybody post me a copy of a certain useful CD - mine is scratched so one of the key files are corrupted. You know the one I mean...

Also, I towed with my TD at the weekend for the first time since turning up the fuelling - what can I say?! Massive difference in performance. Whereas before it struggled pulling an 800KG caravan in fifth gear on anything but a flat road, it now manages >1200KG caravan in fifth, even going up gentle hills without the cruise control dropping out! Needless to say, I'm well chuffed and apart from being heavy on fuel, even solo, I think I'll be keeping the Scorp for a while; at least until it needs major work to pass an MOT...

Oh yes, that was running on cooking oil too! On the way back I used diesel and it was even better. So my advice is: turn up that fuelling (just enough to raise the idle speed should do it).
