Took the wheels off Buttercup today and gave the insides a good cleaning ready for dropping into the local garage tomorrow for a tyre change. Seems a pity as there is 7mm of tread left on the old tyres, but that is the problem, they are old and now have loads of crazing on the sidewalls near the rim.
Kin-ell!! You gorra spycam!?
It's surprising how many cars there are on the road with aged/cracked tyres and unbeknown to the owners..Took the wheels off Buttercup today and gave the insides a good cleaning ready for dropping into the local garage tomorrow for a tyre change.

hang on yes you can
A duff injector spray pattern can create a rich condition.still cant figure out why one cylinder runs rich for a minute or so on start up.. maybe need more injector cleaner
or a new injector
the cylinder isn't firing, not just a bit rich, you can hear it miss.. just for the first minute, then its fine for the rest of the dayA duff injector spray pattern can create a rich condition.

Swop the injector with another and see if the problem moves,duff injector could be wetting the plug.the cylinder isn't firing, not just a bit rich, you can hear it miss.. just for the first minute, then its fine for the rest of the day

gotta drain the coolant and take the upper manifold off.. with all the LPG crap too
