I'll endorse Kent's comments here.
If the AFM is faulty, bin it!
When I was looking at my first SD1 to buy, my Rover mechanic at the time
gave me two pieces of advice:-
1. Determine the sludge factor - remove a rocker cover if possible.
2. Tampering evident with the Flapper unit - AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!
Wise advice.
Cheers
Dave
