It's been a frustrating few months trying to get the engine running well. I've tried everything I know and more after hours of searching online. So after taking a break for a while to save my sanity, I did the right thing and got someone a damn sight more knowledgeable than me to get it sorted.

Today, in glorious sunshine, it left again on the back of a trailer. All I can do now is hope it's nothing too serious.

Let’s hope it’s just a silly set up thing. Fingers crossed!

I do hope to Gary. It has done some bizarre things over the last few months - I've scratched my head so much it hurts! :lol:

I'm sure this is a silly question, but have you had your fuel tank cleaned out? John

The tank is brand new John along with all the fuel lines, filter and pressure regulator.

I got the good news today all is good with the car and it was my shoddy work on the carbs causing the issue :lol:

I've never been more relieved knowing it was just something I'd done wrong.

The car is now off for a rolling road tune later this week and then back home, just in time for the imminent arrival of some better weather I hope!
