hi all!

Post by mysjisbrokenagain » Fri Jul 11, 2008 11:41 am

hi my names gavin, im 24 from swindon and finally got off my ass and brought an e reg sj 410 vx resprayed matt black on the outside with a 2inch lift a month ago! All was well until last week when complete engine failure occured! I think i've narrowed it down to a faulty carb but after 4days of tinkering still no joy! I will post pic's when its running and out of my garage! Hi to existing members dan and trotter!

Welcome to the forum matey!
I'm from just down the road in Chippenham, been out with Trotter a few times but haven't yet been for blast with Dan since he's got his Sammy finished!

we'll have to all go out laning once you've got it sorted! Have you stripped the carb and given the jets a clean, could just be blocked with crap!
