    Well Plasnart,

    I have only done 15000 k's since i had the car, But so far i love the gas, cheap and powerfull, I still need to do the extended rotor and electronic ignition, but i find gas to be great on the road and soft off road (sand and gravel) with out them.

    i have heard the same sorta stuff. i kno that if you thrash it a bit hard off road on gas you can break the float by slamming it onto the bottom of the bowl(or something). witch will make it run rather rich on fuel :P
    and i have heard that you can burnout the valve seals / seats if you dont look after it.

    i still learing as i go, never had a petrol before. and i have only ever delt with diesels at work. lol...
    i kno some of the priciples, but the nitty gritty (Timming, Fuel mixture, ect ect carby stuff ect ect) i have not a clue

    Lovin my car and the gas atm tho tis so much more fun than my old 'Lux, specialy off road

    Aaron.

    I will check with some of our club members who live in Rockingham and see who they suggest.
