Hi Martin

I think I have finally cracked the Atmo's reliability issues, due to parking issues (long story) its currently my everyday driver. Starting issues turned out not to be starter motors at all it turned out to be a faulty replacement power cable that was fitted in order to avoid the same :lol: More recently I had more issues and it was found to be the fuel pump relay.

Having rewired a different relay and a switched power feed the fuel supply has been restored and the original relay had obviously been playing up as the car has recovered a significant amount of torque and power a different car to drive :shock:

I drive it as my daily driver currently :shock: :shock: :shock: yes it finally starts and drives as it should after a number of years :lol: its actaully quite rapid cant wait to put it on a circuit and or up against the clock it will definitely be quicker :wink:

My wide asp silver dream machine is being very patient with me and the atmo. I was hoping to start doing the completion works to it last year; however, due to illness in the family as well as doing two peoples work load for 7 - 8 months....nothing happened :roll: :? hopefully I will get something done to it this year...fingers crossed and funds allowing. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: I really want to get it finished and on the road ...its been so long I actually forget I own it :lol:

Hows things with you do you have any projects up and running?

Cheers Simon

Lol :-)

... well he would be doing just fine with a few more plates if they hadn't have taken his legs away...

To answer your question directly, are we talking my own personal GTA car / projects, or the ones I have with others or worked on for others?

But I am moving over to the dark side... if you have seen the TV series on the Bonneville salt flat racers, and the chap PJ melting his own ingots... then you’ll get the picture, got some of his hardware on my back seat, and it will be running on some heavy gas :twisted:
