When its hot it just doesn't want to work, coughing and spluttering, dieing when stopped etc. Pulled into car park and knocked it out and it just wouldn;t start again, drained the battery trying. Phoned my mate for a tow, brought jump leads with him and jumped it, started straight away and was driving 100%, so something to do with it being hot it seems.

Got a mechanic to have a look at it and he said its possibly the ignition coil? So thats the first thing I'm gonna try.

Starting to get pee'd off!

Yea got one sorted, solved all the running problems I was having with it, with my old loom someone had messed about with the pins on the ECU plug and altered them for whatever reason, mechanic said it was probably done to run standalone management? Not sure.

New loom sorted it anyway, running 100% now finally , just waiting on my MOT now and then I can rack some miles up

There is actually a garage behind the solicitors if you go up behind it, Unique car body repair

But there was no room up there so I stripped it in the solicitors car park

I'll get some vids up if you get some pics up of this conversion your doing, sounds fair to me

Passed MOT today, the fella who was testing it quite liked it, had all the lads round looking at it , when he lifted it in the air he called them over again and said 'look, its got a straight through scaffold bar' Thought it was failing then but all's good.
