Nope mate, Still fubarred.

My gf's dad's friend (yep, think thats right) Is coming over this evening as he used to run a garage but has since retired. Hopefully will help! Its all free anyway which is good, since i have no cash....

Turns out I dont have a spark so It could be a huge (yet immensley odd) coincidence after all... hmmm! :doubt:

Sounds like a bit of a fooker. I'm guessing you didnt make sunday, i didnt either. Seemed to rain a lot though, so may be not a bad thing.

Naw didint make it, felt like a shit though becuase I had no way of alerting anyone that i wouldnt be on the stand becuase I had no internet either. Pppft, bad things happen in their 100's :lol:

It seems I might have a problem with the flywheel sensor? I wasnt aware there WAS a flywheel sensor on my polo!

IGNITION COIL packed up.

Thank you all for your massive help, if only it has actually been a problem relating to Wynn's!

I'm so glad its running again but gutted at missing spring festival becuase of such a trivial problem what would have been fairly simple to fix had it not had the symptoms of a fuel problem due to the carb cleaner.

Theres so much irony i feel like i might just get run over by an ambulance soon. Right, I'm never ever, however going to spray carb cleaner into the tb whilst its idling, ALWAYS take it off.

Throttle response and pedal feel much better though, so the wynns did do something :lol:

Thanks again
