Never Ending Problems - Hence lots of parts for sale!!

Postby Tony Smith » Wed Jun 06, 2007 9:35 pm

After my starter motor fried on the way to Prescott, it would now seem that it somehow took my alternator with it. It also transpires that the exhaust is too loud to use on most UK circuits. On top of that the car is now running out of fuel on boost for some reason. No one wants to fix it , I really have run out of patience (and money :cry: ). Can rot in the garage. I'm giving up on my 2nd one as I don't think I will be able to restrain myself with the petrol and matches if things carry on. I think I have a buyer for the rolling shell but I had stock piled some good parts for fast road/track use. See the For Sale pages for details.

Hi Tony

Sorry to hear you are opting out just as I am opting back in. You gave me some advice on my clutch a couple of years ago.
Dont suppose you have drivers side rear light cluster just gathering dust.

Tony is not a daily geek like the rest of us.

Patience or lack of it seems to have paid off. Spoke on phone, hopefully part on its way soon. Thanks for call Tony. :P
