Default Car Mechanics magazine latest edition - Rover MEMS

They have a 4 page article aimed at the older Rover, am pretty clueless about this, can anyone give me an over view and how useful are they for my 75?

MEMS is just the type of engine management system used on some earlier Rover Group vehicles etc.

Have a little read of this for more info:

As I recall, the last 75/ZT related article in Car Mechanics was a three or four years ago (on the KV6). So unless you're interested in in cars generally, you'd be much better off getting hold of a Haynes manual (No 4292) and the RAVE CD from Rimmer: https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-ZAA000400

Morning,
Is it worth buying a RAV CD? Is it useful/helpful/everyone should have one?
Thanks for your views.
Regards David

definitely - especially for the electrics - its laid out better than Haynes as well

As already said about RAVE, absolutely worth it especially if you intend to keep the car.
