Well I was going to get 'X-Box' out today and take some pictures to show you as she now has brakes and moves under her own power but sadly petrol started to leak out from the bottom of the carb any ideas guy's what the problem is???
Cheers guy's! Will have a look at it on Thursday. I was a bit p***ed off as she is now running and has brakes and even a handbrake
She fired up then I saw the petrol and switched her off quick[:0] Hopefully all that needs doing once the carb is sorted is the welding, outer sills and a bit of fine tuning and she will be on the road after 19 years!!!![^]
Well good news! Carb is sorted hopefully! Had her moving up and down the garage and she's got all gears All brakes work as well[^] She just takes a bit of stating up for some reason. Any ideas?
Also on turning the key to start her she fires up when I let the key go which can't be right? Have I got the wires the wrong way round?
Does the engine crank over OK, if not it could be a dodgy starter pulling the viltage down.
Summer's here.....
So they say
Hi mate,
The starter seems fine! Maybe it need new plugs? Exhaust is blowing at the engine as I can't seem to get it to seal. When she does start she runs okay but has a bit of a flat spot when I rev the engine! If I can seal the exhaust I think that should help?
alan when i done the glendale ignition barrel this is how it was wired- red&white wires into terminal no:1 2x brown wires into choc box to a single wire into terminal no:2 white wire into terminal no:3 hope this helps
