Re: Rough idle

You're not putting E10 fuel in her? Mine got lumpy idle the only time I used it. I always use the expensive stuff now.

Re: Probe won't rev beyond 4000rpm and lacks power

VAF = Vane Air Flow, which is fitted to the Probe. MAF is Mass Air Flow. They do the same job measuring the Air flow to the engine.
They can get dirty and not work properly, take it out and clean.

Re: We all offer advice

I second that Kev, politeness costs nothing and is always welcomed.
While on the subject of politeness, what I find irritating, is when people enquire about parts, ask for photos Having take the time to do pics and send them you don't get a reply.
A simple " Thanks but no thanks" would do.

Re: door speaker size

Yes they are too small. Correct size is 6.25 " or smidge under 160 mm.
I have a pair of original speakers from 97 24v for £10 plus P&P.
PM if interested.

Re: Water Pump etc

Also, remember to loosen the pinch bolt before adjusting the tensioner, if you don't you could bend or snap the tension adjuster bolt.
