Need help with Tuscan

[freemel]

Hello! I have bought a TVR Tuscan recently - but it is in very bad condition now. Nobody in my region can fix it, so I need some help. First of all my Tuscan shows diagnostic codes J and H on its monitor, also when we try to start an engine - flame goes up from THROTTLE BODIES and exaust manifolds becomes red-hot in about 1 minute. Please help me and tell me what should I do

What country are you in?

Here's a list of fault codes for you

Hi checked this out on the TVR car club site - J is oil pressure sensor open circuit - H is air temp sensor open circuit, Try Dom at TVR Power Tel [phone] www.tvrpower.co.uk he should be able to tell you what's wrong.

Hope you get sorted

Thanks for help. I have contacted Dom thru emai, but I think that he had no time to answer me. We will check these codes now, but we cannot understand why does flame goes from throttle bodies when we try to start an engine

When you try to start it are you using too much throttle?

I've noticed when starting my car the if using throttle to start it I sometimes get a little cough back through the throttle body's, after resetting my idle speed I no longer have this problem.

If you have the air box off you might get a fault code from the sensor which is unplugged.
