haha maybe Bri's shoes were sticky for another reason
Will & I went for a walk around one of the NW lakes on Sunday, and I filmed the drive
nothing especially exciting, Will doesn't know the roads like I do, that's why I had to back off once id overtaken him later in the vid - funny bit at 21:20 where im swearing about "f@cking cyclists" lol! apologies for the crap sound quality.

this lude had had an issue for a few months where the car would sound like it is idling on 3/4 cylinders and the engine sounded a bag of crap - wasn't too bad after 4000rpm but occasionally would stutter.
checked the dizzy, ht leads, spark plugs, timing, (thanks to
@Bri &
@njord) injectors and checked the wiring for the injectors with a multimeter, all showed ok, but after doing a compression test, 2/4 cylinders showed pretty low compression
... gutted!
BUT, after some pondering (and hoping it wasn't the piston rings etc.), we adjusted the valve clearances and HEY PRESTO!! one damn fine sweet AF running lude
awww yehhh!! turned out those two low compression cylinders had the inlet side valves closed too small and far out of tolerance. this may... may have been because the lude was sat in a Yorkshire field during Winter for around 6 months before having the arch work done etc. earlier this year.
