51' Plate S2 Elise with Black Exige alloys

Hi all, I am very reluctantly having to put my S2 up for sale as I need something more practical with better luggage capacity for the winter months.. The car is in good shape, and I would be happy to go through service history etc with anyone who is interested. The advert has just gone up on PH, but...

Throttle Potentionmeter, anyone...?

Anybody know a good breakers or Rover parts supplier where I can pick one up quickly and fairly cheap? I hope to get the meter insta...

Re: Momentary shuddering throttle at low revs... Fuel issue??

Cheers Robin, will get it checked!!

Rosco - didnt get a chance to check the board on Wed, otherwise I would have fired over and picked it up. Tried taking the plugs out but the tool I had was too wide (a ba doom tish) to fit down to the plugs.

Give me a shout when your back.

Re: Momentary shuddering throttle at low revs... Fuel issue??

Cheers for the response guys. Unfortunately it happened again last night when I filled the car. Just kept dying after kicking in for a spilt second. Had to do the same as last time and push the small throttle level on the engine to get it started. Might give Ali through in Dalkeith a call and see if...

Hello,

Nope afraid not. Just drive down to work on the M77, and back up through Beith usually.
