Ali - I think you've given Robbie ideas! ::)
Anyways, after doing over 300 miles in him today, I got about 2 miles away from my house, the traffic all slowed to almost a stop, then moved on again. I thought I was in 2nd and tried to pull away, but it turns out I was in 4th :-[ so I ended up doing a giant stall! I had people behind me, so started him up again asap. He started but about 4metres down the road the check engine light came on :'( so I yelled at him a bit, and it didn't go away, so I pulled over again, turned the engine off, took the key out, waited 10secs and started him up again - started fine, so I took him for a spin round the block to see if the light would come on again.... it didn't :)
So was the stall the reason for this? Did I just confuse him into thinking something was wrong? (doesn't take much ;) )
