[doc] wow...car now runs!!!

["blackaddertoo" <blackaddertoo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all
just to update, went at lunch for 1/2 hours engine work..

1/4 turn of the co screw clockwise (rich) and hey prestow car now 
idles.

ran for 3-4 minutes, will do more on Saturday.

so after all this time, was it just the adjustment out? seems 
strange that a car would be laid up for 12 yearsand with a tweak of 
the screw, hey presto.

i will buy a dwell meter and look at the lambda system, and let the 
car warm fully before i can claim she runs fully, but at least i'm 
getting there.

Next is a wheel refurb (have all tyres now) so trying to work out 
how to get all four off in a small garage.

have custom made a fog switch from a window one, drilled and fitted 
a light to it, and have built a latch circuit so push up for on and 
push down for off. will also turn off automatically with ignition 
off.
right rear reverse lamp has a red bulb and is now my fog.
i've got to get her on the road for her 25th birthday.

Regards

Steve
