Thanks Gez,

Yes it is good to have her working, running and mot'd. Ed particularly noted the bad condition of the TABs that he replaced. They were bent, rusted and stuck. He had to grind them off to get 'em out, "A serious security risk" he said. Next to that he:
- installed front end recall plates
- replaced windscreen
- replaced a/c dryer and orifice tube
- reinstalled exhaust studs and gaske
- fixed exhaust tips
- replaced oil filter and j-junction
- aligned RH door
- new TAB bushings
- replaced rear flexi brakes hoses (now yellow all around)

Ed has a 24v renault engine for a client, you mean that one?

My injectors are just bad and aged because of low usage. Rust has formed and cleaning them won't help in the long run.

I'll have a go at cleaning them Rob. I've done one or two.

Your car is looking great by the way :thumbsup:
