|
|
dis mornin, i was puttin in my stereo, and the car started to run like absolute shit. like when u give it a bit of gas, the jump in revs from 1000 to 3000 for example, is not smooth, it's all jumpy n shit.
i think that it ain't runnin on one of the cylinders. i think it's also because i've been slowly doin up the car, and the engine was done 8 months ago or so, and only traveled no further than my driveway, it has never been run for long, ie. hasn't ever warmed up properly. i always start it, put it where i wan't 2 put it, and turn it off, not letting it run for longer than the choke. do i just run it round the block a few times, let the fucker warm up, and it should be fine or what?
engine was bored, new cylinders, new rings, new main bearings, top shaved, reco head, etc, etc, .......
thanx, chris. |

you need to run in the motor if it doesn't have rego
than let it run for a while each time you start it 10-15min |
