I think this needs an update Josh

[Peter Jones]

After a minor setback , it's running again.

Who cares how fast it goes when it sounds like that!

It makes the sort of noise that makes mothers snatch their children off the streets and lock them indoors.

It idles louder than my 1800 @ 9000rpm!

With the pinging issue, just unbolt the dizzy and rotate it clockwise a little. You won't notice the difference. It'll probably go better, actually.

we tried advancing the timing, pinged more.....

got it all timed up by Doms dad with the strobe light and everything and i put some 98 in it while i was at it, goes better

on the way to doms house engine braking in 3rd gear the thing was just popping and farting like no tommorow it was AWESOME

[Water Boy]

Also is a new exhust on the cards? Are all the new panels on?

[GoLfMan]

I mean't retard it a little you goose.

My golf sounds better.

[DVR68U]

yeah something is not right , you shouldnt get pinging with a stock 1600 are you sure the fueling is right sounds like there is more power to be had there.

well we did everything..... but its sorted now, its just stale fuel thats making it ping now

i recon yours will sound better, but at least mines running!

i recon the valve stem seals are gone as some white smoke farts out when i really get up it. Who cares, gives me an excuse to do some head work to the other pre emissions head lying around the workshop.... big valves and some porting anyone?

it turned out the cam was one tooth advanced, and now its a case of crap fuel, i got my weber tuned while Doms dad was at it and it idles like a charm now
