After picking it up from Great Yarmouth last weekend, this problem hasnt dissapeared!
It cuts out quite often, either at traffic lights or during normal driving.
Because its a conversion, the wiring loom isnt all connected to the right places etc.
I took it to a friend of mine at a MOT garage, and said there are a number of things wrong with it including:
1-Reverse lights don't work because theres no cable leading onto the gearbox.
2-Temperature gauge on dash doesnt work as there is no plug for the engine in which the socket sits on.
3- The car over heats like a bitch
4-It misfires and i have to rev the shite out of it to stop it from stalling.
The list goes on...
My mate said to get it all sorted he'd spend 2 13 hour days doing it over weekend, which meant him taking out all the loom and reconnecting it ensuring everything was connected with new sensors etc. He wants around £150-£200 quid.. Is that reasonable for the work needed? I think so!
Whats your thoughts?
Cheers!
