Advice on the car which was not in use for 2 years

Good shout, I was watching a video about adjusting the TPS at the weekend as its something I've not yet done on my car. It was a common tweak on my old Suzuki SV650 to improve low-end throttle response.

The video I watched said you can simply remove the connector on the TPS while the car is running; if the idle problem disappears then the TPS is causing the problem.

Is there any way of spotting the difference between Tein coilovers? I'm about to order the spring from USA, but I don't really know which one I need. There are 2 types: 200mm lenght on Flexis, 250mm on Street Basis and Street Advanced. According to my measurement my spring is 190mm. It's hard to tell precisely, because 2 coils are detached. Still, it's closer to 200mm mark, rather than 250mm. I would assume that I''ve got Flexis, however, the top mounts on my coilovers are OEM. As far as I know Flexi can't be installed with OEM top mounts. I'm kinda lost..

Is there a dealer/service location near you that you could take it into and ask?

Could even then try the 'this is crap, surely it shouldn't have snapped' line on them and see if they'll do you a reasonable price on the replacement?
