Thanks seems your the know it all of MMOCbmcecosse wrote:Turn up the idle speed good and high - then start it. Is the 'choke' fully off? You need to get it up to running temperature before making any adjustments.
Yeah that's what everyone seems to say is that the HS2 is the easiest and simplest to use but I still stuff it upbmcecosse wrote:The carb is v simple - don't panic!

Haha but she had a professional clean from my friend yesterday he thinks the car has only ever been cleaned with washing up liquid D: so the paint needs more help than a good proper clean Yeah that's what I thought but not really happy having a mop at it and to be honest the paint needs chips respraying, previous owners non matching paint touch ups and there's a some rust that needs repairing so don't really know if it's really worth t cutting maybe leave it a couple of years and respraying the full carbmcecosse wrote:T Cut is your friend.
Where exactly is the rust that needs repairing? ... some spots that look cosmetic on the surface can be more serious underneath ... for example the rear arches - I've had no end of trouble with the minors I have rebuilt with the blooming rear arches (I wouldn't mind so much, but that lead filler is a pain in the bum)MoggyBlue wrote:Yeah that's what I thought but not really happy having a mop at it and to be honest the paint needs chips respraying, previous owners non matching paint touch ups and there's a some rust that needs repairing so don't really know if it's really worth t cutting maybe leave it a couple of years and respraying the full carbmcecosse wrote:T Cut is your friend.
