Yep, it's lowered. That's not far from me either so it probably was me. You did well seeing it in use, it hardly ever comes out now. It's in bits again this week while the injectors are down Mr Lobb's for some new pintles and spray patterns checking.

Assume Mr Aston has them with him ? Should see him over weekend!

Yes thanks. Dropped them round his on Saturday but I'll have to post these pintles down tomorrow as they only just arrived today. I've asked James for your address, but I'm guessing he's tanked up somewhere now so have had no reply yet. I wondered if they were dribbling fuel as the little 205 smokes its taters off when it's started from cold, then misfires for about 5 seconds before the black cab sound effects burst into life. New pintles are Bosch, but made in India. I need to try and get new seals for where they mount into the head too if you know of a good supplier, otherwise I'll try the main dealer. Thanks again and it'll be up for a trip to yours soon matey to see if you can work some magic on it.

Was first time I've seen you I was in a saxo so blended in to normal tragic quite well, if I was in the bx you might have spotted me, definitely looks a mega sleeper for sure, I wanna see it beating some moden cars off the lights.

It works the best when you're already rolling. Acceleration in 4th and even 5th is mental and at 70 you can overtake stuff like it's a supercar. Can't wait to see a 911 out somewhere and have a pop. The car goes better when it's got something to fight against, like going uphill or being in a higher gear.
