hi all, tempted to sell as not got the funds nomore an its slowly dying

ill star with the bad first!!!!
tax out today, mot out on friday!
needs a new windscreen
wont rev over 4&1/2 thousand revs????
when cold it judders a lot an really holds back!
slight knocking on a full lock left an right!

sllightly better bits!!
just had new clutch & clutch cable 700 miles ago & new adjusting quadrant
new rota arm
all tyres are spot on/wheels missing centre caps
all electrics work
full leather 90% good
engine is fairly quiet an once warm runs really smooth
before the problem with the revs everything was fine! an it felt brilliant to drive!

probably not worth a lot with no tax an basically no mot but hoping for as close to 300 as poss!! pics are in my gallery

you haven't bought some dodgy petrol have you?

alansr1916v · 3rd March 2007, 08:16 PM

i thought exactly that as im in the south east! i had every symptom they were saying drivers were experiencing!! i waited till i ran out of petrol today an filled up with Vpower shell an its not made any difference!

NOT RECOMMENDING THIS AT ALL. My dad used to run some parafin through his 2.8 to clean it out or something years ago. Dunno if it worked or not? HAHA.

alansr1916v · 8th March 2007, 11:13 AM

lmao, ill skip that for now but might be tempted to use parafin soon, mite be used for something other than cleaning it out though

i got it booked in the garage monday for a fault code reading and the mot!!! getting windscreen done tomorow so fingers crossed, not going to sell it anymore as spending to much money out on it!!

just had the screen and mot done on mine. ur right to keep it. not enough of them left now.

Luke1916v · 9th March 2007, 08:14 AM

I love mine haha. Even thought it looks like a dog.

alansr1916v · 9th March 2007, 10:10 PM

i know, i looked at it the other day an really couldnt go threw with putting it up 4 sale!!! so its now taxed, just had 4 new plugs and set of HT leads,new rotar arm, an just got the new screen fitted today! cost me £85 inc v.a.t
got to wait till monday tho for it to be code read and then its off for the m.o.t !!!!!

Luke1916v · 12th March 2007, 09:40 PM

That price for a screen ain't bad you know! My dad had one for his sub and it cost £240 i believe!

Take it for a good drive before the MOT test, it makes it better on the emissions as all the cobwebs are out or so I am led to believe.

stupid questio maybe but were the inside of the old leads oily/wet? top white part of the spark plug wet/oily?

if so fooked rocker > leaking oil down wells > no go over 4.5k

no mate they were all dry, problem now fixed thanks to some 5 finger discounting from the breakers, (see tech section, crankshaft sensor)
