THE CAR IS FIXED hurra.

Took every connector off the thing today, inlet manifold off, throttle body off all cleaned. Intercooler and rad out... Intercooler has a pinprick leak that i have temp bodged. New coolant sensor. All connectors and earths cleaned.

Some one had bodged all hoses from the Amal so i think there were a few leaks. and the bloody metering unit to turbo hose was the wrong length with a massive kink in the middle.

Stiffened the spring in my dump valve.

Then set up the mixture (co pot).

The car starts on the button now with no gas. So for any one with a similar problem do the above before sourcing a new metering unit.

cheers,

Rob,
