Only me could set the satnav to Skipton Building Society, rather than Skipton. A quick 30ish mile detour.. haha

Can't you make the mixture leaner?

Artful Dodger
Making the mixture leaner just like that can be disastrous!! Make sure it's sound and not broken and tow it to someone who can set it all up properly:)

From experience I would avoid a mondeo mk3 of any type. They are cheap for a reason. Shocks will fail, springs will break, they drink fuel, the rear brakes will seize, catalytic converters crumble to bits, the electics go nuts on them (central locking mainly) and if you are skinny and under about 6' the driver's seat is terrible.

And the winning blue is...Tahiti! Did some testing today and as much as I liked the Nordic Blue, the way Tahiti shines and lightens in the sun is the winner.
