Totally bog standard.

Good points.
Solid engine runs well.
No rust or rot that I could see.

Bad.
Heater controls are f*cked. No blower, heat or vent change.
Boost leak. Can hear it hiss.
Brakes are shit.
Um... other than that.
Well happy.

Gonna be after a set of 5 door half leather seats.
Decent set of wheels.
Intake manifold so I can fmic.
Want a set of crystal headlights too.

yeah i believe it involves turning the boost compensator down as it's shit on the Lucas iirc . .Smile

Yeah. Lower than stock, thus reducing off boost smoke.

yeah, although ironically that's the compensators job Smile

Disconnect the battery, wait quite a few minutes, and then reconnect the orange plug under the driver's seat.
It its very likely to just be this coming loose.

Resist the tempation to not bother disconnecting the battery unless you dislike your neck being correctly aligned.

I will do. I hate airbag stuff but hate pain more lmfao.
#28
I did the same thing just now and other than disconnecting the battery and waiting a while (did something else) the time involved in plugging the plug back in was probably a few seconds.
