LWB vs SWB...
I've driven a SWB as well as LWB and as Jaffa says, just feels a bit more nimble. I might add the exhaust is a little more intrusive as per losing a few inches off the exhaust. All in all a tighter sporty feel than lazy gt feel, more like an mr2 kind of cornering feel

That does help sometimes :rofl:

diy solar panels
Electricity no but heating water using solar power is easy enough, a black box with black pipes inside in direct sunlight will absorb the heat, all you need is a little pump to pull the water through into a storage tank

Best of luck buddy and i'll be throwing some work your way when I finally get the V8 back to the new house, I need everything cleaning and valeting ready for the shows this year and I know you'll make a corking job on a gunmetal grey car :D

Hi all Long time no speak
Ey up buddy, nice to hear off you. I wondered what the result of this was. Are you sticking with zeds or moving onto something different?

Missfire help!
I was thinking might be worth swapping injectors and seeing if it changes cylinders or even unplugging each one individually?

digital dash
I wanted to go digital because of all the hassle of calibrating the standard dash to work with the V8 and I think those ones that Keith was using are the way to go with the smoked front, only go to find another £460 quid plus postage and duty! lol

Missfire help!
I know this is probably a very stupid question but you have got the two connectors the right way round so they're not firing when the other should be firing?

Missfire help!
Surely if all 8 spark plugs are sparking when held against the block then the misfire isn't ignition/coil pack based, it's fuel based?

Fuel economy
It really depends on the zed, i did the calculations based on filling to the brim then refilling at half a tank to the top and it was the same for both, and the tt was auto. As one of the guys says above it's about momentum on the tt's. Heavy car so if you're light footed enough you can squeeze some rather high mpgs out of them. I've always had fresh plugs in mine, regular oil changes and always checked the tyre pressures and it makes a difference. At the moment i get about 70-80 miles for every 10 quid (29mpg) dipping to 14-16mpg on just town driving but concidering most cars don't do that much round town it's not that much
