Yesterday I got my ELR control unit from UK, installed it and have exact same behaviour as my old one, 950 to 1000 rpm idle speed - regardless of temperature. tach works, OVP is good, coolant sensor is good

as I had to remove the crossover pipe to connect the ELR connector I had removed earlier, I also inspected the accelerator position trying to find out my 4500 rpm shift problem. I see that if I pull the linkage fully the lever on the pump stops short 8 or 10mm from the full throttle stop. I know that would cause the pump never to go full fuel.

The linkage adjustment is at its maximum point (lowest) but the gap is still there. There is a very slight slop (1mm) in the linkage but I doubt that it would cause such a large gap at the fuelling lever on the pump.

Any ideas guys?
