i got me one
good news boys and girls i have me a donor
its a 92 1.8 cvh with a carb brand new tyres , battery , alternator 6 months mot clutch and box seems good ran a bit flat and the idle was poor found to be an easy fix due to a split vac hose on the manifold to t piece so no carb vac and ign module vac (keep a lookout for it) just sniped a bit of one of the carb hoses and swaped it over £0 little bit of a hum trough the body like the prop is out of ballance? any ideas all well and then the starter cluch is now playing up will try and strip it befor going and buying one i think all for £200 and the guy even drove it down from bristol to exeter and left 1/4 of a tank of fuel in it cant be bad no need to keep a lookout in devon now but thankyou everyone for keeping your eyes peeled |

You'll be stripping everything down anyway before it goes in your kit, so I wouldn't worry too much about a few probs as you can inspect it all later when its in bits! You certainly won't be using the prop again, unless your going to shorten and balance it yourself
What wheels are they? My donor 14" alloys didn't clear the rear uprights So I had to fork out for new wheels and tyres. |

Well done that man
I wouldn't worry too much about the strange hum ............ most likely just the rubber donut on the prop or perhaps a bit of wear in the propshaft centre bush if it has one fitted As said, you'll not be using the prop in its current form anayways Good find, good price
