Lookin for some help - Was pulling up to lights to stop and revs dropped right down to about 3-400rpm and tried to cut out. A light which looks like a tank with a star in it kept coming on and going off. Not sure what one it is for cos i cant find my manual. Anyone Help?

Cheers in advance ;)

Think you'll be about £80, see if LMF can send you one up. I think it's a simple swap at the top of the engine bay tho, so no ramps or anything needed.

It's the black part arrowed in the pic below - easy to swap, undo plug, 2 x jubilee clips and replace. Get some new jubilee's though, if it has never been changed as still has thOEstd ones you'll knacker them taking 'em off.

Best to mate, you might be running lean, you never know.
