finally after a week i got it back on the road i finally fitted my sideskirts and was over the moon with them  untill last night i came to go out in it and its now died on me
all i done was washed the bottom of the block off witrh water and changed the gaskets on the thermostat and just wont start at all, brought a new dizzy cap and rotor arm today changed them as there was no spark, fitted them now there is a spark and it still wont start fuel going through fine. so i took it off the road 2day and engine will be comeing back out this week for a full rebuild on wards and upwards
