Default Essex scooby specialist
I recently moved to Essex and have bought a 96sti scooby with a bit of a lumpy problem when hot!!!
I need to take it to someone who can put it on there computer. I've been told that it's more than likely the air flow meter?
Does anyone know of a good place to take her that wont rip me off or do cr*p work?
I live near Basildon but I can travel localy to the right place.

Hope you guy's can help me?

Steve

I don't mean to sound moody or anything, but you've only been on the scene (on Scoobynet) for a few months, Xtremes have been around for years.

As mentioned above, Knowlesy and Paul have a lot of respect with in the club.

Don't take it personally, you seem to be building up a nice reputation
