The extra volume would make for a throaty neap.

Would that be considered a quad rotor or just a siamesed twin?

By the same token, if your car doesn’t have a WOF but it is up to WOF standard your insurance will often still cover you.

Sitting outside cafe this morning nomming down a cake and coffee, watching some barrie in the carpark looking all over my imp, hands on hips, shaking his head and tut tutting.
He heads over to the cafe and orders a coffee. Works out that it's me who owns the imp and asks, in a very strong Yorkshire accent, "how long have you had the imp?"
"oh maybe 3 years? I rescued it from a rusty shell in a field" I tell him, thinking to myself this could be a nice interesting conversation but having a feeling its going to be painful..
"has it still got the original engine?".. he spits out, no interest shown at all in the fact I've taken the effort to rescue a nice little classic car and done a not too bad a job at it.
"nah.. Ive fitted a Datsun engine in there" I replied. Here we go, this will go one way or the other I thought.
Fuck me did he roll his eyes and gave me the dirtiest look. He might as well have walked over and thumped me one with the fists i could picture him building in his fit of barry rage.
The conversation stopped there and we left, hannah laughing her arse off at how I've gone and upset another barry with my choice of engine
Pre-empt that shit and say "no, I had to put something good in it, you know, reliable, doesn't leak like all those useless union made British engines, so I went with something Japanese, precision engineered and trustworthy. Fuck the English, if it was so great there we wouldn't be here, am I right?"

If you ever want to sell this, Clint. Let me know. It's perfect and I would very much like to enjoy it at some point if the cards fall that way. I'll even promise not to call you about all the things I'll never do to it.

So well executed sir.
Great van.

Just if it's slowing quickly maybe there's a bad earth or a bad starter and it's sapping too much electricity for it to fire adequately.

Sounds like a starter giving up the ghost from that first description.

Same family smaller displacement doesn't. Providing everything else remains equal, number of cams, fueling, induction type, etc.
Unless they changed that?
Regardless your point remains valid. Putting anything worthwhile in it will require certification at which point you may as well put something good in it.

They're ideal! Dang. So good. A bit lower and a bit less tyre and they'd be chassis scrapingly awesome.

Disconnect battery so your horn doesn’t sound, press it in firmly and twist either clockwise or counter clockwise and gently release as there will be a spring behind it.
