Right then.....
back to basics
I thought I had the car running spot on, until I put her back on the road as a daily driver until someting else is ready again.
But not so.
She runs, and she doesn't blow a hose, temps are good, so not too bad. At least something worked out good.
Final checks revealed water still leaking very slightly from the top cap and inspection revealed that the seal was proper corroded, so a quick call to MJP and a new one arrived and was duly fitted.
However, she just aint right.
At low revs, it doesn't sound right, and the power and smoothness previously known isn't there. Revs drop to about 400 when coming to a stop. Coming off the gas produces a pop from the zorst too.
However, once I nail the thottle, I hit 2800 rpm and I get a kick as the power hits back to all 6 cyls, and the smoothness is there again, taking me rapidly to the 5.5rpm range.
What is the problem?????
When the water hose popped, nearly the entire right bank and everything right of centre was coated with water. I changed the dizzy, cap and arm, with spares that I had lying around.
What else am I missing, or what else could be causing the problem??
And help or advice much appreciated
