Based on your description Graham, it doesn't seem like the ECU would take long to recalculate its values?
Yes, just one start.
Try the same series of actions I did :
1) Disconnect battery for a minute then re-connect
2) Connect ACR4 to diagnostic socket and battery
3) Switch on ignition and start engine
4) Make ACR4 connection to ECU
5) View "components" display, confirm throttle position value responding to pedal and throttle status value can show "idle" and "mid"
6) Switch off engine
7) Disconnect and re-connect cable from ACR4 end to reset it
8) Switch ignition back on but don't start engine
9) Make ACR4 connection to ECU
10) View "components" display, floor throttle pedal and confirm throttle position showing up to 82 degrees
Steps 7 and 8 may have been switched around, so try both ways if one doesn't work for you.
