Yes but how many miles on the engine, maintenance history, weather conditions etc. all will have an effect on power.

Yes you are right mate :)
Miles are about 94k

The challenge I've got though is changing the results
1. more power
2. Sort out that horrid curvy graph lol I've never seen one like it lol

So today made some progress.
I fitted a cheap ebay bass tube to make up for the lack of punch in our Ludes. And for £20 this great :) and very light maybe 1kg :)

I also cleaned out my petrol cap area.

Then fitted this, which won't be to every ones taste I know.
Image

I then installed my new stickers from bludge 8-)

I then finished the removal of the A/C as the last owner started this but just removed the pipes!? The lightest part? Lol
Nice easy job to remove the remaining bits and brackets etc and condenser fan. I then fitted the new shorter belt.
Unfortunately didn't grab any pics of this sorry. I also taught my wife how to change the oil and filter so she did that :)

The next thing was install a new pas belt before it snapped :o
Image.

And the last job, I gave the head side I quick clean and degrease.
Image


So that is my bank holiday round up :)
Oh and the best news of all...

Since my wife enjoyed the meets and vibe of the scene the other week, and since driving my Lude.....
She is now on the hunt for a Lude of her own and will soon be on here also :P

His and hers FTW! 8-)

Any one? :?

Seems to be lots of sand/grit in the underside of the cam cover. Those plates that are riveted on, what do they can I remove them?
