Hi all
Not wanting to bore the cruiser board with the ongoing stories of my woes but......
Firstly, Froggies seem to be keen to keep my business and have stepped up to the plate with regard to giving me a special price on the new OME shocks.
Secondly, the injectors. Well it was expensive! =A370 per injector fully refurbed. 3 hrs work and bits and bobs I wont say what the total was but put it this way July was a horrendous month for me. Hence the car will just have to pogo round the corners a bit longer.
When I collected the car she started easily (always did tho) and ran smoothly. Paid the man and drove off. Seemed to rev well with not a trace of smoke. Got to westcombe hill and the car was woolly going up the hill in second. Normally she charges up in third with no hesitation. Felt sluggish no guts, torque seemed to be reduced? However, the car is no longer stumbling when facing up hill! Idle is: cold 750-800 hot 350-450 and uneven. When cold starts but vibrates more than normal.
Any ideas? During the work on injectors he cleared all pipes and tubes with air and then bled the whole system. Replaced all the washers shims seals with new. I am dropping the car back weds and he will re test them and re tighten the injectors to the correct numbers. He does think the IP needs attention but will leave it till we sort the injectors.
All the best
