What was the rattle?

 

He wasnt too shore, had to move the exhuast a lot to get the replacemnt pipe back in so that may of helped.

 

But he thinks it might of been the front of the Cat agaist the cross beam ( I think thast what its called) in front of it as they were very close togeather.

As I gessed the car was running rich, but we couldnt find any reason as to why it started :shrug: So just put it to how it should be and that was that :D

Made me smile when Graham came back after taking the car for a test and said " it goes like Stink " 8)

 

Big thanks once again to the Dave and Graham for all the help, all ways great to go to them and will be going back :notworthy:

Yeh, I noticed a considerable improvement with the 'DG' 'go faster' sticker correctly installed!

 

Mind you, that might have had something to do with their work in returning it to running on 6 cylinders as opposed to the 4 that it was running on... :roll:

Jake, there are places down Bristol Rd in Gloucester who will do it 4 you, perhaps could get it done after work one afternoon?

 

Either Pro Tyre or Chris Mullins do it.
