Title: WOT a surprise!
Post by Glyn on Dec 29^th, 2013, 11:48pm

This morning started No 1 Cossie using WOT method and to my surprise she fired immediately- not good for the nerves ! Tried it again same result except that I was quicker switching off !
Everything else seems ok _any suggestions how to start to see if relay ok etc?

I take it there's nothing stopping the throttle opening fully - cable adjustment or carpet under the pedal.

Thanks- stupid me I didn't think to check under the pedal- I will do so tomorrow, come to think about it I don't remember feeling the kick-down. :'(

Thanks Tompion-solved ! Guilty of ignoring the obvious - carpet it was !!
