Passed!! Quite surprised if I'm honest. He didn't do an emitions test and when I asked about the noise the exhaust makes he said he's half deaf so I'm ok lol, few little niggles go sort out though,

Even with a warm engine I can't take the choke off? Somewhere between the test station and home I snapped a fan blade, will I be ok running it for the time being with one missing blade? Temp sender isn't working, fifth gear makes a funny noise, and I forgot how rough the ride in an sj was till I took it out today. The lights I have in all dip the wrong way so must be from a left hand drive car perhaps?

Sorted choke issue, was just running too lean, owe twiss for that heads up! Still the temp gauge not working though, earthed and all connected correctly, ran It for a good 20 mins and the needle didn't move at all.

Definitely man, would quite like to sort some bigger tyres first though, and buy some ear muffs.
