YIPPPEEEE It actually runs

Both dad and I managed 3 short runs around the yard & outbuildings and we have some in car footage too.

Just got to sort out idle & mixture a bit better

Well done Jos. You must be well chuffed, i know iam for you. I got your text over the weekend but ive been out of fettle - sorry for not replying.

Engine started and a drive out all in one weekend - thats way too much excitement!! You cant have much to do now.


I managed to set my timing by ear last weekend and it was good enough to get the drive out. Thats the beauty of Pintos.
