Thanks. I dare say I will be having another go in the next few days - hate being beaten!
Really looking forward to seeing pics of the ZT when it's all back together. A real labour of love. Cliff

Cliff, two questions about the throttle body:
2.0 and 2.5 are identical, right? Is it difficult or a simple task to remount the springs after disassembling and cleaning? Apart from that the lacquered throttle body looks really great!

Swapping the IACV can produce mixed results without the help of T4 to configure its stepper motor with the ECU. My Rover 25 came to me with the revs dropping off when driving off from cold and often stalling more so in cold weather. From what I could see the inlet manifold had been changed and most likely I thought as a job lot complete with IACV etc.. I was aware of the need of T4 to sort the problem but it wasn't until I called on Brian for an unrelated non-start problem that the problem was largely fixed. I say largely because Brian put a newer map on the car which all but fixed it completely but before he could check out the stepper motor the car stopped talking to T4. An intermittent problem I suspect at the time as I've since had a cheap code reader working on the car but if it were not for Brian the car would have been scrapped as a non-runner and I could not thank him enough.

My last attempt at fitting it had to be aborted when I managed to snap the "Tee" piece connecting the breather pipes during removal . All fixed now though, so I will have another go in a few days time . Cliff

Hi Cliff,
I´ve got further questions. How did you manage to remove the axle and its bearing marked in the picture? And how did you manage to make the mechanical parts so shiny? Are they freshly galvanised? Is it possible to remove the two marked plastic parts without damaging them? And my annotation to your 98%-problem: I´m quite sure that a T4-session will resolve it. Haynes manual describes that this could be necessary after removing or swapping the throttle body.
