Default newly bought VTS

Hi Guys

managed to snag a VTS for £200 quid.
dead battery, oil everywhere, chassis has usual saxo rot and bodywork is tatty AF.
private plate on it so i thought fuck it i'll buy it for that money.

reluctant to start at first as its been sitting 6 months. doesnt like to idle but has no filter etc on so im guessing thats a vacuum issue
will idle high with smallest amount of throttle.

she sounds nice and doesnt smoke too much, plan is new gaskets top to bottom which should address the oil and then anything else that needs doing.



once it warmed up head is a bit ticky - what could this be? do tappets need adjusting on these?


just after a general 'things to check' as this is my first valver
