Given up. was going to wash it aswell.... however. ran it to warm up (make sure theres no air in the cooling system). and it sounded alright. dad left to go and watch the match. The revs were slowly backing off (i thought due to it not being up to temp) opened the door, gave it a little blip to see if it would pick back up... there was a pop from the exhaust and Black smoke... and now has a miss.... i guess saint davids is off, and i think ive broken my toe from kicking the tyre so hard.... Ideas what's up with it?
