Was looking forward to racing at Japshow Finale at the weekend.

 

Cruising up with the Hampshire Jap Car club boys (yes I know - Asot is not in Hampshire) and some spirited overtaking insued.

 

Oooooh some of us where doing up to 70mph!! Not any faster than that at all I swear on the bible. Not at all, not even a little bit over!

 

Any way, after booting it a few times the car started to hesitate under load!!

 

It got progressively worse down the rev range until pulling away from a junction was like having an epileptic fit!

 

Luckily by this time I was right outside Sant Pod!!

 

Not a good start to my morning!!

 

Unpacked the wendy House and set up before it started raining and then got on the phone to Jeff for some free advice!!

 

And guess what I got?!!

 

Just that. No, oooh this is going to cost you or well you need to bring it in to us, just straight on it - try this, try that and now do this, right, now try this, now do it standing on one leg and bingo, my car was running again.

 

Great attitude, good bloke, happy to help when you need it most, not in it just for the money and knows his stuff. but less about me, this is about Jeff!!

 

Only kidding!!

 

Top Bloke and thanks again Jeff!

 

OK so you are wondering what was wrong ....................

 

 

I can't tell you or I'd have to kill you!!

 

:shuriken:

I take it Jeff told you to nip down to the petrol station and put some fuel in it then......

Pmsl

Lmfao!

He likely told him to check a fuse !

lmao!

Bet it was the standing on one leg that did it though eh, go on you know it :lol:

Glad you got sorted though fella.

smithy

bet the car just thought theres no way im turning up looking nice and shiney with this monkey and his hat behind the wheel!!!!

The irony of the fuel, a local garage the other day they had a 323ci in as a none starter, both the RAC and AA had looked at it, AA had towed it to the local garage as "undiagnosed none starting".

 

After much delibiraton, a friend of mine was there at the time, said "how much petrol is in it, check the OBC" sure enough 0 miles.... amazing!

About time you got rid of that heap and bought a good one.....:tt2:

 

Jeff as ever brilliant mate, top bloke.

Was it that you had your hat on to tight and it was cutting of circulation to your brain??

I'm sure even the best mechanics in the world have fallen foul to that minor oversight. What is it that they say about assumptions?

Yup - Jeff's a top fella alright; always willing to help out and is without doubt a serious 300zx guru......

 

Nice one!!
