Just think What could only a complete numpty have done. & that'll probably be it.
It's perfectly drivable, as I hope to prove by taking it to the Nostalgia Nats on Sunday, just not quite right.
It'll fire up straight away from cold, but I need to keep my foot on the throttle for the first minute or so, just to pick up the revs when they start to drop away -the revs seem to drop off in a regular cycle if that means anything to you.
When I pull away gently, if I don't blip the throttle as the revs die, it'll stall.
It may just need a bit of a run -once it's properly warm it ticks over fine, but still tries to stall when I pull away.
Haven't done anything mechanical to it today, but spent a couple of hours this evening polishing the paint -with a wire wheel on the angle grinder. Just taking off the surface rust that's built up & starting to clean the various paint colours off the cab roof. Trying to make it look a bit tidier for Sunday.
Looks like the plan is for me to drive it to Stratford on Avon for the drag races with Loony following in my daily driver, so we can swap over somewhere along the way. We'll bung a few basic tools in the boot of the daily. I think Chris & Archie may be along for the ride too.
