THE CAR & MARKSDTM......
« on: 29 April 2009, 06:36:57 »

....well as probably most of you all know MarksDTM stripped and rebuilt the engine, with a few modifications, whilst I was away in Thailand :y.....Anyway picked the car up on Sunday and drove back down the M1, and the top end speed of the car is very quick, and the fuel consumption has improved also, despite now being a 3litre instead of a 2.6.. Have no EML light problem now and the rev counter is no longer idling higher than normal.

So all I can say is I am very happy regarding the car and what a top job Mark has done....great stuff Mark and thanks again :y

The lifter is still the same, unable to get any lifter treatment in the local helfrauds, so if anyone can get there hands on some and bring along to the York meet would be appreciated :y
