The car made it through gilloolies rush hour traffic in one piece, although neither the water or oil temp gauges work. The car cut out once but started again. phew!
Some things to report:
Pulls to the left. Heavy smell of fuel.
Shox are farked, water bed city!
The dropped suspension leaves less than 1 inch travel before the front wishbones smack against the underside of the chassis. IDIOTS!
The engine runs hopelessly rich, I watched the fuel guage drop from 1/8 tank to empty in 30km. at least the warning light works! It also possibly explains the backfiring and smell.
Washer fluid warning works! heh.
Oil pressure is good!
Kickdown is good, no propshaft vibes as far as I can tell.
Power windows work, left side sukkling. power mirrors still work. The mirrors are a joke though and would suit a dentist!
The engine is a bit busy with short gearing imo. 3000rpm@90kph. I can try inching up the rear tyre.
Lots more but I will continue when I get to a PC. I will update this thread wif pics and updates as time and finances allow. Wish me luck, guys!
MY MISSUS LOVES THE CAR!!!!
