just got home guys
4.5 hour drive! back from plymouth to nottingham
anyway the cars bodywork is MINT and the wheels are 9/10 for sure
will get pics up tomorrow when i have chance as its pitch black now
list of probs i'lkl have fixed tomorrow:
exhaust clanging about
play in steering (needs welding)
list of probs i dunno how to fix:
so help me please!!!
petrol gauge is stuck on halfway
rev counter sometimes has a mind of its own... even at a steady 3.5k (70mph) its jumping about betwwen 3-4k revs but with no affect to the actuall cars revving...... odd
also the car misfires if you try and floor it, this happens 75% of the time and expecially when cold!. if you take it steady and are light footed the thing drives great. any ideas? this is the main problem i really wanna sort.
anyway after it got warm and i took it steady for a bit i nailed it in 3rd and 4th... didnrt misfire until about 10 seconds into the "hammering it part" so it cant be that serious of a problem cause it was bloody fast!
if anyone knows anything on how to fix this misfire or lives anywhere near nottingham i'll gladly bring it down for you too look at and see if you can sort it for some $$ obviously.
it bound to be just a sensor or plugs surely?
cheers
