Well after a short amount of time with the minus idleing at 4000rpm a change of the auto choke system has sorted it right out! Woo hoo!

Just need dry weather again now!!!!!!!!!!!!! :w00t:

Ade,

you're lucky you've got an auto-choke system- my auto-choke involves turning through 90 degrees and manually grabbing the carb mounted slide system! I must figure some kind of cable out before the bulkhead goes on...

When (if!) the dry weather arrives, and if you fancy a trip to Warwickshire- you're welcome to drop in. The first time we all get our cars together will be a memorable occasion I reckon.

Glad to hear it's back to full health.

D.D.

Sorry for hijacking.....

Near Leamington Spa, and about 5 miles away from F1 Mini. You're all welcome to pop round if your in the area, or fancy swapping your garage surroundings for mine some time. Give me some notice though as the house is like scene from steptoe and sons at the moment- we're having central heating fitted (just in time for the warmer weather)!

Well none of you are a million miles from me by the sounds of it. I'm just a few minutes from Silverstone Circuit.

Anyone want to pop around they're welcome. :w00t: :ph34r:
