Need help to set idle

[david.skinner]

Yes - that sounds a really good idea on both counts Brian. I would like to change the manifold gasket before I head over. I would probably need the car to be running a bit better before I come over.

With the inlet manifold off is there anything to identify/check/measure?

Does anyone know the inlet manifold head bolt size and pitch? I'm pretty sure I've got a partially stripped thread and I am planning to put in a thread insert and need the sizing, unless there is a reason not to?

Regards
