Final Checks!
mackei23b - 9/6/08 at 01:52 PM

Well I was out in the garage doing some final checks prior to the SVA. I got a colortune to check the mixture prior to the test just to check if it was looking O.K. The good news is I'm geting a nice blue flame at both slow and fast idle so fingers crossed.

The engine was going great and then it died, it would only restart for a brief moment and then die again, great that's all I need, I'm doomed!

Then I had a though, checked the fuel tank and no petrol left!
