How would I check for arcing open the bonnet at night? Revs don't fluctuate though so probably gubbed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the rev counter go up as soon as the ign. is turned on (engine off)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
