wow that's great info - thanks for posting - sounds like your Dino is really healthy. And it certainly sounds healthy from about 1:05 onwards in the youtube video.

Thanks again

Could someone who has a 2400 Coupe maybe take some pictures of the cover or box that'sover the battery in the boot/trunk, please?

That's funny Thomas - yes I wondered what car was "ES-D-246" but now we know, small world indeed. Maybe you could publish the whole article here - might be very interesting! It's difficult to plan an approach to resolving these hesitation problems - you have to weigh several factors. - How...

Thanks Thomas - very helpful. I will now spend the day in the back seat of my car. And the link looks good - it's a pretty long cable, nearly 3 metres. I've had good luck replacing shorter cables with new brake cables from a bicycle shop because they're very high quality. But they're always cut to a...
