Anyway my woo is back on the road....

It turned out to be the cat.. convertor.

Do you actually need one?

Bit of a pain this one without actually having a look. Ok, It could be gassing up. So I wonder if somewhere in the Exhuast is blocked, or maybe the Cat has dis-integrated, or the Exhuast has had a "Ding, and is restricting gas flow, or evn the rear silencer has collapsed internally via Corrosion An...

can you get a coil pack from a friend to test if yours is bad? i guess the coil pack will be expensive so it is better to test first before you spend your money. also if the coil pack is bad it will show at all speeds... this sounds like bad spark plugs or bad wires so i'd start by testing/replacin...

hi there 1- as for the sump i don't see the problem here... if you love your tin sump that much you can just swap it from your old engine. 2-power steering... simply remove the power steering pump and you are done, if you decided to get the power steering then you have to buy a new steering rack, f...
