Thanks guys
Took it down to Peterborough and back (30 miles, ish) and it's pretty much ok. Getting a bar of boost, and it's taking off down the road well. Still kicking a bit under constant throttle though, and sometimes it's burbling and bogging down under full throttle. It's idling fine.
Bit of a dilemma really, I wanted to take it back to Cardiff on Friday as I'm off to see my folks. Three and a half hours of missfiring G40 will steadily erode my sanity, but I'm trying to decide whether to just take it and run the tank down again so it's completely full of fresh fuel.
Trouble is, I'm taking Caroline. She
won't be amused if we break down.
The noise it's making sounds like a burble, like a Subaru exhaust note but sped up and higher pitched, if that makes any sense. Unburnt fuel coming out of the exhaust perhaps?
So is it running rich maybe? Would that make it bog down? Could it just need a tune up?
Or am I being optimistic...
I'm down to dizzy and coil pack if I'm replacing ignition parts.
If it's fueling, would a dying CO pot cause it to burble and bog down?
