    Poorly 197 :(

    My 197 has been sat for a while, charged the battery up for 24hrs and now the idles very lumpy And sometimes even shuts off by itself. Won’t rev over 2.5k and misfires sometimes.

    Fuse box removal

    I'm having some difficulty removing the two fuse boxes that attach onto the battery casing.
