AB 0 Posted February 11, 2010 i have have picked up an old corrado that i am trying to tidy up a bit, i have owned a vr and a valver before but this ones seems quite lazy when reving. it runs fine starts well but when reving in neutral and pulling through the gears it just does not seem as keen as the other valver i had. its had a good service so any idea what may cause this? :shrug: thankyou adam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
