hi, need a new throttle body as car is revving and using LOADS of fuel, garage cleaned the throttle body out ls week which sorted it out for a week now it's back to how it was before. I asked the garage and he said it looks like it needs replacing, he hasn't said he will do it, leaves me to ask him to do it if i need him to do it... so if i do it will it need to go on a computer, how easy is it to replace and any know where i can get a recon one?

#2doddle to replace and nees no re-programming, as for recon ones, no idea but we have used ones here for both multi point and single point engines. I'd check the idle control vale first if its a multi point engine though -
#3ok, chhers for that i will look at the car today.... i take it the idle thing is attached to the throttle body...
