Yes, please! It wouldn't be a meet, without the obligatory reap - it's like my car knows!

Yes, essentially HT leads/cap/rotor arm. Maybe coil, depending on what the actual issue is with the misfire! The first lot haven't been changed since I've had the car (+9 years) so well overdue for a change anyway!

I've got a commitment Saturday morning, so will aim to join you all mid afternoon.

last chance for me to put hydraulic ramps in the car today so please let me know if needed or they will stay here

Feel free to add to this if I've missed anyone / any jobs.

Primarily I will be on hand to help out with Al and Julian's DLocks and solenoids but if there is time I would like to just check my emissions and fuel pressure.

Have a great weekend!

I CAME, I SAW, I REAPED!

A massive thank you to Dan AKA Dbro 4 for sorting out my misfire (which in the end involved changing leads,dizzy,cap/arm & plugs) and all in under 2 hours - absolute top draw Dan!

Thank you also to Alistair for replacing my belt, which was well overdue a change. You know how much I like to hold onto my old belts though Al!

Unsurprisingly, the car runs beautifully again now and didn't miss a beat on the way home.

Always great to see everyone again, as well as meeting some new members. Sorry I couldn't stay over for the duration this time, but a good laugh as always.

All the best

Hi!

Firstly it was great to finally attend and meet everyone. Your wives definitely made mine feel welcome ( which is good as I am given the thumbs up for another meeting!).

A big thank you to Nick, Alister, Darren, Mike and everyone else I reaped from. The car was finally running right for the drive home. The car was as good as gold this morning so I would take that as problem solved.

Work done -
CPR changed - Nick to recalibrate my old one
frequency valve relay - better connections made.
Pressure spring re-shimmed 0.5mm shim. - Pressure now 5.3bar.
Throttle linkages adjusted correctly.
Air intake gasket leak fixed.
Mixture fettled to perfect running - Nick (the delorean whisperer)

reaping success!
Bills yet to be settle
