Have checked all the pipes and all fit very well, and none are soft, so no collapsing. When I started up this morning which it starts first time every time, it is actually more like no choke, as she is at around 750/800rpm ???? But brakes still rubbish until 1/2_3/4 mile .

Hi I went to pick up a water pump from my local dismantler, when i asked him about the Auto choke sensor, and the lumpy running while cold, he looked at me as if I had 2 heads, then I asked about the braking probs and got an even weirder look and told these things can't happen as it's all electronic so should not/never do any of these bits, so some help with part numbers would be very helpful, and there location within the engine bay please, Thanks Rod
