Hi
I picked the kit up today and fitted it this evening - quite a fiddley job, especially getting the clip on !

I used an old soldering iron with a removable pointed tip (filed down to 2mm dia.) to melt the hole in the butterfly. I also found it necessary to file the little raised square on the left side of the butterfly as it was stopping the pin from sitting square.

The car did seem to start and tickover better, although i haven't driven it yet. Perhaps the swirl valves had been left in the wrong position when the arm came adrift?

Is there just a bump stop for 1 direction?
