Well taken car back into JMG (no one else would look at it because of the mods) to see if they can find this fueling/smoking problem that is just getting worse. Been through every sensor, electrical connection and tuning diagnosistics so got to bite the bullet and have the head off. Guy's will be looking at the valves, pistons and bores. They've got a new toy in the shape of a tiny camera they're going to stick down the cylinders to have a look at the insides bit like the camera's doc's shove up your a##e I suppose :? Mark did say in training they shoved it up every other orrifice they could find :roll: They also suspect the coil might be coming to the end of it's life but not sure as the fault is evident right from first ignition. Let's hope they find it soon so I can get on with the body resto :bounce: I'll keep you posted with what they find this time.

Must be a pain in the a##e not knowing what it is, or how much £ to fix it. I'm sure they'll find something quick and you'll have it back soon.

Good luck.

Stick with it Andy, once it is going again you will forget the problems.

Sorry your still not sorted. Trouble with jobs like this is they take ages to trace. And other jobs that are simple to sort make more money & keep the garage open. So you have to be patient. Mines still not right but it is running! Will be worth the wait when it does go. :wink:
