Question

Post by bobbo52 »

Got the car on the road today and everything went good until I stopped for gas, the car did not want to restart, it took about 3 minutes to get it restarted. Could this be because it was sitting all winter and just needed to get fresh gas running through the system or ??? During the winter I did some cleaning of the engine bay and noticed that the carb has been upgraded, looks like the one Mark sales, also there are no points, so I assume that it has been changed to electronic ignition. The timing belt looks brand new and it runs great. Not sure what all that means but I had the biggest grin on my face when I got back home and my wife said its probably illegal to have that much fun in a car. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
