My Laurel C33!
Samgrainger32 replied to Samgrainger32's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
CARS GOING AGAIN manifolds back on and all going not leaking from manifold any more but is a small leak coming from where the dump pipe bolts to the turbo as one of the bolts are stripped will fix that should be easy fix hope so anyway then would like to take it to have it put on the sniffer just to make sure everything is ok with the tune and that as im not sure whats been done look it for a good drive last night and filled it up and drove 184km on highway and i had just over quarter of a tank left!! so it really really loves fule its done smell to rich and its not all black up the back of the car i believe it has something to do with the auto box and it slipping as its getting worse wont even go skids so sad but all that will change as soon as i get the manual in it cant wait to have it done and few little issues left and should be running good only really need to sort out the hand break and cable now... -

yeah wow i mean even if they are "hand made" cant see the sense in paying 2k for a manifold unless you have more money then sense... as for the trust the day will come when one of us buy it after old mate has road the 32 off wont be long and as i had 8k flashed in my face all i seen was manual conversion for the laurel and more haha -
