Took the car for a spin this afternoon for the first time in months!

 

It started up first time and apart from the noisey lifters which soon disappeared (as usual when cars been sitting for so long) it runs perfectly. Speedo doesn't work because of a dodgy speed sensor but it was like that before all the work was done so no surprise.

 

Non of new belts screeched, don't know if thats a good thing.

 

For some reason now though its idling at 1200rpm even though it idled perfectly at 700ish for first 10-15 mins :confused:

Oh yes, the ride is pretty harsh but iv acheived exactly what i have wanted to so far. The car handles amazingly, i CAN now chuck it round corners and there is hardly any roll let alone slip. I havnt tried any high speed (over 50mph) testing yet, want to sort out the allignment first.

 

Well chuffed

Nice one yas. Give yourself a pat on the back :)
