Got her today. 110m journey and only 1 small issue considering it's been honking it down all day. Was cruising at 55 on motorway and thought I'd try cruising faster, got to 65 and she died. Assume a fuel starving issue like pump or float chamber, considering flat out is 70 on these I'm not...

Hi Thank you for adding me. Picking up my long awaited first 90 this weekend and have a couple of very easy questions. Will search for answers so not super important, but thought I'd say hello and start a conversation here first. I'm getting an 85 petrol. That's the 2.28 engine with weber...
