Is my car getting healthier on its own?

[wca]

When i got it there was a definite sag to the drivers side. After driving it about over the weekend this has disappeared and the car appears level.

Yesterday I had comedy lights with one going down fine and the other waiting five minutes after you had switched off and left the car before dropping. This is working fine again without any interference from me.

The only possibly negative this is that the idle rate has gone up from about 1,200rpm to 1,800rpm. I am thinking this might be caused by the new oil filter and oil change along with the new fuel filters. I guess getting clean fuel and less lumpy oil makes it easier to idle so the rate has risen.

I still need to get the carbs tuned so hopefully they will sort it out then.

The wedge continues to surprise and delight!

Just a thought sometimes after changing oil on v8 oil pump can drain and you have no oil pressure check your oil pressure guage is working ,just in case have read this in steve heaths book otherwise wouldnt have known myself.

Perhaps it's one of those rare wedges with an inbuilt sense of humour.
Those comedy lights are pretty rare....
Just care for it and it might start winking every time you say hello

Oil pressure sits steady around 2.5 and temperature sits steady around 90 but went nearer 100 when stuck in traffic for 20 minutes idling at nearly 2,000rpm!

Using a wedge is the best cure for it and will get better and better. Standing still it will start to let you down more and more. Although mine can handle months of not being driven (due to something in need to be fixed), starts first time and runs only rough for a minute or so(seems fuel pressure has to build up in the injection system). Then it is the nutter behind the wheel that needs to get used to the wedge again and that takes a bit longer then the wedge to get back on its feet.
