wet weather problem, month into ownership review
Discussion
Hi everyone. well i love the tuscan. Had it for just over a month now and love it. Im 23 so maybe one of the youngest on here. Im a mechanic by trade but hopefully moving to the police force at the end of the year ~(gets ready for the boo's and hisses ;-) ) Hopefully as i got on witht he tuscan i will post up some how too's. I have already fitted a speed sensor to it and a coil pack. Took pictures of coil pack fitting so is it worth doing a how too?
Quick pick of the car. not had chance to take many.
done around 1500 miles so far and also has been pritty much ok. Had a trip to the coast yesturday. on the way it was faultless. however it was sat in the carpark for around 2 hours as it rained the driven home in the rain. I think some water has got to a plug lead as its now developed a light mis ever since the rain. Dont think the cover for plugs/ht leads is sealed down well enought as i ran out of sealent! anyone else has a simliar problem?
also its done 180 miles to a tank. steady driving with a few blast's, does this sound right? im sure it needs throttles set up.

glad your enjoying the car Ian, i was 24 when i got mine. 
water on the leads is a common problem, you have to use plenty of sealant.
if you do a 'how to' then it can be posted on the tuscan site that some one has created, sure they'll be along soon ish.
as for fuel, tend not to measure it, but i think the best is ~250miles on a tank worst ~100

You raaaang...?!
A set of 'How To' pictures and text would be great, Ian. We have a site here: www.mytuscan.co.uk which has walkthroughs, faqs, problem guides, etc.
If you've got anything we can add on there that'd be brilliant.
ETA - I usually get about 175-185 miles to a full tank, including a fair amount of town driving, blasts and longish journeys. Last week I got over 220 miles which has been my best so far.
Cheers,
Justin
