    I picked my early bay up from the garage the other day, drove it round the corner to a quiet place to let my girlfriend have her first drive, and we let it idle for ages while she got ready. After a while the idle just came to a stop. I restarted it but couldn't drive it because it just cut...

    So I have got my square back after having the crankshaft oil seal replaced....(engine out) Anyway it now has an annoying 'issue' I start the car from cold (starts first turn as normal) Runs 'ok' tickover wise for about 30s then races to about 3000rpm until the auto-choke comes off and the car...

    My bus has started causing me problems. It starts fine when the engine is cold, fires first time, takes a while to warm up but runs well. But if I turn the engine off and say go the shop, when I come back to it to start it takes ages to fire up. It'll turn over, and after turning over a few...

    When the engine is cold (ie choke doing its choking thing) all is fine but as soon as the choke opens fully there's a massive loss of power and a reluctance to rev. If I close the choke slightly by hand all is fine - the engine will rev freely but as soon as I release the choke to the fully...
