engine and gearbox out, sort the loom, motor back in and get it working properly.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Sorting out a Corrado's very much like making love to a beautiful woman.

When it p*sses you off you leave it alone for a bloody long time in the hope it'll come back keener.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Guess it's cos this winter DH has got the workshop sorted with walls, doors, light, lift and some insulation.

Totally.

There were two of us in at Wellow Racing on Thursday evening, both working on cars - major shock!  I'd turned the Corrado through 90 degrees earlier in the day, in preparation for some work, so it seemed rude not to make a start on the old girl again.
