    Yep, I've only ever seen one car with it connected up. Mine takes a couple
    of minutes to idle on its own but you can drive off after 30 seconds or so
    and it's OK.

    That price did include his body, as well. Still overpriced though, IMO.;)

    it's probably using twice the amount of fuel it's supposed to though!

    Tim, has your car had an automatic choke fitted? I had a fiesta with a standard weber that had an auto choke.

    If its not got an auto choke, its running too rich when warm and wasting fuel.
