HERM :shock:

hey meeni, How would you know your car is sluggish All you've got is 3 metres of driveway. And no paddocks?




OH i remember :roll: :x


Ok

Well maybe you should let it warm up.
Cause ya should hear all the backfiring and noise from when i put the boot down after not being started for a week. I vote just go and turn it on for a small while often, and watch it and make sure it doesnt move
So then in 3 years time when YOU WILL have your next drive on the road it wont be too bad

just a good tune of the carby maybe? Viv has a little flat spot under acceleration, and i think she just needs a pro to do the tune?

Check the acceleration wire. It may have loosened after you drove it!
