The T4 should be there Kevin so just put your name down it will also tell you where the issue is with your airbag light although the starting point and most common cause is the connector under the seat

I don't suppose that anyone looks at the old airbag light on connections at the meetings do they?

The lads are looking at converting my FBH key operation to their mod and I have already spoken to Steve and arranged this for the Sunday as well.

HI Kevin in the mean time while you are waiting on the T4 to inspect your injector reading purchase some of this below drop a bottle into the tank, it really works.

Keeps my injectors good on both the FL2 and the R40 M47.

Ideally you need a gold plated terminal to crimp on. It would be easier than trying to splice on a wire.

I've tried messing about under the seat with the plugs but no joy, I'm assuming that if it is due to loose wires then the plugs will need chopping out and the wires linked ( or whatever everyone does as to rectify the problem)

Yeah cheers Steve


i did the filter change and filled and soaked overnight with Tec 4 which is the original Forte stuff made by the guys who sold Forte to Wynnes after your advice to do something of the kind. The car passed the Mot, although because I left it at a garage to change the rear suspension arms and dampers and they got the MOT done with a neighbouring garage I didn't see the emission readings to see how low or high they were.

I have added Archoil in each tankfull since so I would like to think that the fuel lines and injectors are fully lubricated and as clean as possible.

Where do you put your name down for the T4 please Rob? I assume that it's Duncan who is carrying them out?
