So I got the car insured for three days. Went to Air care (expoect to fail to be honest) and they said they cannot tet my car. Apparantly when they put the brakes on the rear wheels do not close the car down quickly enough and the test aborts. of course this has happend the last two times and they would give it an idle test good for one year (instead of the ususal two)

Apprantly they could not do that now. I have to speak to "head office" and ask for a special exception or some BS. and no they could not even give me a "fail" so that I could get the three month insurance.

What a PITA.

On a brighter note, at least I'm driving it. Going to need some tuning for driveability - whihc is horrible. Also got a few shudders from the driveline on low load. I think I'll go to the guy that Andy went to for some advice.

 

just take it to another aircare place

 

You can tune it so that when it's in gear it slow down harder, mine heck they didn't even need to use brakes the thing slowed itself down.

 

HMMMMM I may need to get some more advise on that Matt.

Also, anyone out on the road tonight?

 

Will that work? Worth trying

 

ya a bunch of us are going for a rip tonight maybe we will see ya around
