eh? the fan will come on at idle more so than when you're moving as there is no air getting blown onto your radiator from hoofing it down the road.

sorry that sounded a bit rude, i meant its no bad thing that your fan comes on, i'd worry if it didn't!!!

if you experience digi-lag then what i think you can do is prise off the cover on your air flow meter (black plastic cover just after your airbox) and in there is a collection of things. if you move certain things it advances something or other and overcomes the digi-lag. you then have to seal the cover back on. like i said, i've not done this so anyone who has (kingsley) could you elaborate on this. pics would be helpfull too.

no, thats ok, silly question i guess. just glad its normal. changed the fuel filter today and sadly no mice in it. i was hoping it might explain why the running is just not quiiiiiite right. but it seems pretty much the same.

Yes pics of other digifants would be great.. and explainationals about the afm adjustment (air flow meter?) sorry, a bit new to this. :rolleyes:

yeah.. not fair. ive half a mind to send in a pic of my covered in mud/oil/coolant chrystals and the odd bit of rust and alot of electrical tape digifant, but that would just make me look like even more foolish! :undecided:

no, its actaullly pretty standard, and the only 'mods' were put on before i got it. k&n air filter and big silly exhaust thats doing my nut in. I put a pic in my gallery but i dont think its up yet. O and i havent got nice bbs alloys. only p-slots but they are better than bricks
