Woo hoo!!!

[matt-man]

I can't believe it but it now runs!! At about midnight last night, dad and I finished putting it all back together and she started! Hoping to go for a good blast this weekend but first will be a good clean! I have still got all the le mans dirt inside and out!!

So, I can only think that I had 3 things which had gone wrong and hence why it was intermittent and a nightmare to trace!

1) sticking injectors
2) bent valve which was sometimes seating and sometimes not!!
3)broken inner valve spring

I did also find a burnt diode in the pektron steering module which is fixed now but who knows what it did!!!

All I know is that I am owed a good drive! Yippee!!

Now all I need to do I go for a test drive!!

Take some tools and cable ties etc with you just in case, I feel naked without them.

Bent valve too? Probably some bad valve bounce because of the broken spring let the valve hit the piston?

Good stuff!!

I'll have take you up on that drive at some point now! (not this weekend though as mine is off the road for a few more days)
