The chimaera is currently on stands whilst the differential is to be fixed and gearbox. I started the car up for the first time today and it is idling at 2500 - 3000 rpm .... I played around with the alan key idle controller which isnt doing anything....is this timing? or what else could make it idle so highly?

thanks

Chris

So that was due to the extra air getting in was it?
