Hi Scott,
Rover is doing my head in at this time :(. I think something's not right with the carby (idle problem). For cold start, choke has to be used for about 5mins until it can maintain idle. When stuck in traffic, idle will gradually drop and drop.
After short stop (engine should still be warm), choke has to be used again so it won't die (like cold start). Adjusted the mixture and idle screw, but still not good.
It was OK before (took it to Hastings for Pelican Pantry lunch), but it was idling too high before. Lowered the idle, but it went downhill after.

You've been seeing the blue one a lot? Head gasket change? What happened to it?


Daniel

PS: Sorry for another hijack, Kirsty

The blue one blew the head gasket a couple of months ago and to my knowledge is still going strong.
If you need the black one checked out give me a call and we'll make it healthy again......I dont think it will take long :D

Cheers Scott
