Best bit is they work better than the original key, which was well worn it seems! So nice to be able to reduce
amount of keys on the keyring !!!
And of course to be able to use the flip keys to their full potential !!

Food for thought...
Drive up was horrendous prob due to no coolant,
But Having replaced tps, ect sensor and cleaned and tightened maf, was really hoping meanie would be finally fixed...
So Coolant and temperature is one thing, and til fixed cant be sure if New tps is working as it should, cos Frequent times i had to reset ket whilst moving to clear a dropped cylinder, and i noticed at certain points if i went from half throttle to wide open throttle, she bogged right down, if i came back off gas shed pick up...
If i hadnt come bk off gas but Instead reset key, get a pop then back up to how it should be...
Have noticed distinct change in engine note too!!! Gets better and worse according to misfire etc, but I guess First things first fix this fekin leak before mania!!!
Then rewire the cnut once n fer all!!!
