update...

after finally getting somewhere with rebuild etc been 3 weeks and car been running great been doing bits as and when we can (car not being used yet)


finally fitted new idcv last week and been even better...

fitted new rear bumper last night and started fine 8)


went out today to fit 4 new doors that i got from a 2wd shell.. while a couple of ppl was doing that thougth would show friend new and improved starting with no throttle and great tick over... started like a bag of shit and sounded terrible.. checked obvious things and retried now wont even start...

and to finish the day...after fitting just the 2 rear doors seems the 2wd doors have a different wiring loom than the 4wd i got in my car.. so as lock car.. one back door unlocks and other does nothing

sad to say but was so close to tears tonight had to just walk away from it 8(

First thing i'd do is clean the plugs, if you've been starting and not driving, they could be wet/coked up and causing it to run like shit. Happened to mine lots when it was on 8 greens
