How many T4 machines exist - Page 5

I've just had s brilliant idea.
Once the number of our cars left on the road gets down to about 6000, we can have T4 each??....
Then as we all learn how not to use them, Brian can have a full time job un-bricking them. 🤔

No thanks, V8's are bad enough without connecting a T4......

You have to admit even with T4, a wing and a prayer come into it...... just look at the wording on this screen

I'm impressed with their confidence in the procedure.
I wouldn't mind betting that's just a ploy to keep you busy with the stopwatch and away from the biscuits

More than likely Les, unfortunately the owner of the car concerned had snaffled all of the biscuits before I arrived

Yes, certainly on the V8 models it's a case of hold your breath, cross fingers and hope for the best

You never know what the outcome might be, on a good day you might escape unscathed even with lots of experience

There's no consistency between cars or even the same car, different day.

But that's what you get dealing with unfinished prototypes which is what you've got with the V8's
(If you look at many of the ECU'S they say just that

)

Wouldn't it be nice if just for once, one of the guys who helped design the system crawled out of the woodwork and joined the forum.

He'd be worth his weight in gold.---
