So, How's The Car?
Finally turned the ignition. Would've done it earlier in the weekend, but should've realised the battery was well below it's charge.
And, well, it runs, sort of. A small problem initially with the distributor sorted, and it fires up and runs. But still sounds like a bag of bolts. Or an old farmers tractor. Very lumpy running.
The more I look at it, the more I'm coming to realise I'll need to take the timing belt apart again, and do the setting up properly. It can only be a couple of teeth wrong either way. Would've sorted it today, only my request on yesterday's post seems to have hit, and it's been constant raining all day Looks like I'll have to resign myself to doing it at the weekend. Now, where did I put my bus timetable...
