I read this from the notes:

Ideally these lines should stay roughly horizontal and close to 0 % .If values are
high (>+/-20 %) or erratic, suspect excessive purging , worn/erratic throttle pots, leaks
in exhaust/intake manifolds, faulty lambda sensors or incorrect fuel pressure (see "real
time help" for fault screen).

The lambda sensors are both .1 most of the time and there are no faults on the faults screen.
The pots were out by about 3% but resetting them in software has helped the running no end.
I then reset the adaptives and took it for a run.

Being new to this I wonder if one of the more experienced memebers would confirm or deny my fears about these readings please.

I am not tracing a particular issue - I am finding a TVR is like an onion, one layer leads to another layer. I would like the car to be as good as reasonably possible.

I don't know about the figures, but (I think) if you reset your adaptives you need to drive the car for 10-15 mins (normal driving..like out of town traffic) for the ECU to re-calibrate. Must say I don't mess about, I've got experts, so I leave it to them , I just enjoy.. hehe
