OK so back together & went for test run, ran fine before I did the chassis work, but then it wasn't 30+ C, fine pottering about but won't pull on the motorway, so carbs off (again) will see what it's like in the morning, hopefully the Mercury will fall, only just dropped under 30 now, too hot :cry:
