yay you made it

i was getting worried mate when we didn't have an update yesturday

had pictures of you stuck in the midlands somewhere living on nuts and berrys that you found.

nice car mate

get a new carb (the money you'll pay getting that one sorted is better spent on a nice new simple one. edelbrock 650-750 tell them you engine size cam and height above sea level and they will send it more or less set up

sort that exhaust.

and take off some of those leads and put them in with the long ones from the passenger side going round to the other.

they all reached where they need to but some inprovemnets can be made.

if you know a breakers yard ford fiesta and mondeo all have plastic seperators and a plastic bolt down frame for plug leads that just fits in ya tool box :thumbright:.

better than nout and keeps em off you exhaust

great to meet ya matey missed you down the beer tent!!! saw robbo but missed you?

Dave

Turn back? :shock:

I would not even have set out in the first place in a car running as rough as that. :lol:

Only 6 cylinders firing, the carb pouring fuel in at a rate of almost a pint per minute, the plugs that were firing fouling up, one exhaust manifold blowing completely and onto the bulkhead wiring....

Christ almighty Wayne. I will not be able to sleep all night the next time I am expecting you. :shock:

Have a few of these on me. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
