Cool, glad you kept the 6 cylinder.

Is it still on gas?

92. CD5?

3/10. Had nice seats,

Early l200 and a 4G93t lancer.

Seeing as I've mentioned it.

Never have I experienced. . .

Such noisy lifters with so much Promar in the sump.

Such whiney cam drive noises.

Such cracked exhaust manifold.

Such head gasket pouring engine oil out.

Such interior falling apart for no reason.

Such low oil pressure at idle with no bearing wear.

Such high oil consumption.

Such smoky plumes.

Such shitty shifting gearbox.

Until I owned two Mitsubishis.

Edit.

Such fried engine ECU.

I'd never experienced a car that used so much petrol but was so slow until I owned a mitsubishi.

Not the problem then.

Where does the temperature gauge needle sit when it's at operating temperature?

Is the thermostat working correctly?

@Bling

Unscrew the idle mixture screw and give the hole it came out of shot of compressed air and see if that helps.

I suspect new minis have CVT transmissions? 

In other CVT news when I was an apprentice in about 1997 I got sent on a ford course about the newly released escort CVT. was complete shit and drove like a car with a slipping clutch. Ford sold three cars country wide all of them blew their transmissions inside six months and ford gave up on it.

Has she considered a Toyota Corolla?

Every project is up on blocks.

I'd fill the sump with CRC 556 if I was you.

Weld/panel beat that plate or get a personalised plate with those letters and numbers then paint it black.

@Roman is the head still off the engine? If it is it is more cost effective to machine the clearance off the top of the valve and use the buckets you have already.

When you need more clearance that is.

@ajg193

Is this a scenario like the starlet cam choice?

Are you concerned the 12a monsta j port you have for the Anglia might be a bit rowdy?

What are you running and how much are you paying a little?

1992 Nissan Sentra station wagon with over 400k on it. It has an OHG dedicated system and a GA13 as the original engine gave up the ghost at nats 18. It is surely the best vehicle known to man kind.

I pay about $1.19l at the Caltex on main north road.

If anyone needs an impco model e regulator.

Yes please.

For everyone's information last week I traveled 500km for the princely sum of 50 dollars in my fine LPG daily.

Better living everyone.

@kpr what's the story with 7age builds? More volume than the head can flow?

Yeah that burgundy ford is nice.

Why not both!
