Just rolled my new toy off the transporter on Saturday, only to find a dead battery & the auxilary oil line left open.
She wouldn't start no matter what we did, so off we went down the route of checking electrics, ignition, leads, fuel, carbs etc..... Dropped the plugs out last night & swapped em with a new set of NGK's. Boy are they cheap!! Voila motor started 1st time. Idle was a tad high 4000K, ooops better back the idle adjuster out a few turns. She's loud :-) Me like. Don't think the neighbours we're too happy, not that i care (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) can't wait till Wednesday to wake the entire neighbourhood, 1st drive here we come.. |

QUOTE(Rough_Rider @ Oct 5 2004, 10:50 AM) Hee,hee.....well, there's 2 left. SCCA on 30 Oct & Rainbonnet (PCA)....7 Nov, I think, both at PIR. Rainbonnet also has a "drivers skills" deal before the AX. That would be a gud place to get aquainted with your new car. We've had good luck with the weather the last 2 years....we can hope for 3. |
