Billena, thats the exact problem i have at the moment...... i have a post for it somewhere..... but after changing all of the above, im still stuck too!! I do have a turbo gearbox in there from the previous owner and its not a turbo now - would that make a difference??? I will be keenly listening to what other people suggest next.......
