Still not got it back!!!!!!!

31-10-2009, 23:41

Well, as the title says, its still at my mates house being made road worthy!!!!GGGGRRRRR

Since hes had it hes found the following fauls,

1 injector needed,
lambda probe in front exhaust needed,
new plugs and leads,
vacuum pump,

plus a whole amount of time setting the timing up, and UNBLOCKING AND RESETTING all the things that someone had done to make the maverick run something like to sell it on, hope fully if he does what he thinks it needs, (NEW INLET MANIFOLD), it may cure it otherwise he thinks the ecu will need checking out.

i am really looking forward to getting the bus back, but it seems like i have brought a bit of a S****R, problem wise!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway just thought id explain why ive not been on for a while and l look forward to meeting up in what maybe looks like the start of 2015

, but at least my insurance will be lower then.

speak soon,
craig
