TPS has been replaced (with the carbs) but I can always swap back to make sure.
From what I understand about carb icing it's mainly when the engine is cold and in cold weather. When I'm leaving in the mornings now it's ~8C outside, my garage is around 15C and it does it constantly through my 1 1/4 hr commute. Also I'm pretty sure the carb heating pipes are ok as one of the rubber joiners split recently on the way to work (thankfully about 3 minutes before I got there) and was leaking coolant.
Just checked the battery voltages, engine off it was 12.18, warm idling it was 14.03 and at 2500rpm (I don't want to piss my landlord of too much...) it increased a fraction to 14.06. Are these ok?
As for electrical connectors, I'll see if I can take a look at lunchtime tomorrow.
