Stepper motor on TVR/Rover V8

[plipton]

Heeeeeelllllllllppp!!

I have idling problems on my Chimp 450 and have been advised to strip and clean the stepper motor.

Can anyone help with pictures and location please as I have no idea what I'm looking for.

PS. Dealer's out of the question - the nearest one to me is 20 miles away. No big deal you say, but I live on Guernsey and the dealer is on Jersey - and it costs £90 odd quid to get there with the car (plus a day off work)

Thanks in advance.

Thanks griff2be

I'll have a butcher's after work if the weather holds.

Bible ?? where can I get one of those? I have a few niggly problems which might be covered in it.

Cheers,

Will order a copy (how much BTW?)

Might be an idea to join the TVRCC. Do you have their address/URL?

Regarding the ECU

Edited to say for the ecu reset you disconnect the main connector to the ecu in the passenger footwell. Run your thumb accross the terminals once too. Resets the ecu and clears any fault codes.

My ECU says "5 litre non cat" on it (written in tippex) but mine's a catted 4.5 litre. How can i tell if it's set up right for may car?
