Got a small issue with the Chimaera and idealy need to try swaping a component with a healthy one before I get the wallet out.
I've got idle/tickover issues and according to my trusted local TVR independant spanner man the guilty component is either the idle control valve/stepper motor or the ECU, hopefully it's the stepper moter (yes it has been cleaned ) but it would be nice to pop one out a healthy car and give it 5 minutes in mine to see if cures it, and I can then spend my hard earned in the right place for a change.
So anyone with a Rover V8 car in the Nottinghamshire area with 15 minutes to spare, it would be greatly appreciated in beer vouchers if I could 'borrow' a stepper motor for 5 minutes, I could come to you with my spanner, or it's not long to the Chatsworth do, if someone's going there and doesn't mind my borrowing it then that could be arranged.

Steve,
More than welcome to try ours but won't be until Chatsworth. Presume you'll get hold of one b4 then - I know maggit is Notts based.
Offers there if you need it.
