Haha funny u say that. The car likes running rich at idle, otherwise it doesn't like running. It will be an absolute dog of a thing to start when cold, and when running has no balls


Why does it need balls at idle? :?: Cold start is a different issue, I agree that it needs to be richer.

When I say that, I mean one has give it a fair bit of throttle when moving off the line, otherwise she'll bunnyhop. When running rich (when I say that I dont mean overly rich, but richer than standard) she isnt too cranky

Not to hijack this thread - yarnmx5 and randymx5 I will keep you posted (at the moment I am still rebuilding an engine, I expect to be down at Regency within 6 months for approval).
