Thanks for the screw fix link too, i didn't realise there was one so close to me, and that they were open on sunday
I need a spring for the return on the throttle, halfords and b&q don't sell springs, where can I get one from. Not online as I need it on tuesday.
Halfords do sell them but only in a massive box full....about £9 for 200!!
Or here..

RS sell them in all shapes, sizes and strengths.
Aldi also had assorted boxes in a while ago. You might still find some.
you may also have some luck at a model shop,... if there is one near enough
I have bought them at a local motor factors before
those screwfixc box springs, and probably the halfords ones are quite weak - I don't think they'll be strong enough for throttle pedal
unless you faff around doubling or tripling them.
RS looks like the best bet - search for "extension spring" (if you find something suitable., then U2U me - I have them local to me and have
account - but you would need to wait a few days due to most likely not being in stock and then posting to you + plus they sell them in packs of 5 so
be sure you knwo correct one). use freebie red PO elastic bands in the interim?
