    Cortina tune up

    Anyone recommend a local (Fareham) company that still tunes up older cars? Got a mate who's Cortina is running rough and he's pretty sure it's the Webber carb that needs looking at. Thanks for looking!

    What have you done to your vehicle today?

    That is a result. I booked in my ST150 for MOT at end of the month and then the very next day the braking system hemorrhaged fluid out of the rear caliper, turns out both need doing. A job for the weekend, probably in 4" of snow.

    SBC Core plugs. Calling Mechanics!
