Will it start?

[Jack]

The Novargh has been sat in front of my house for about 5-6 weeks now without being used. I suppose I ought to go out and use it, as its becoming a bit of an eyesore, plus one of the tyres is a bit flat lol

Bets on it working? :D

[Nobby]

20p and a bag of crisps it will start!

[General Baxter]

its a redtop, top the oil up first as i bet most of its come out and its on the drive lol

[loggyboy]

i left mine for a year down a side path, after a few turn overs it fired straight up with no probs... providing the bats not flat, i reckon 5 weeks will be 1st timer!

[peester]

think of all those starving nova fans that arent lucky enough to have a nova like u...
waster. lol.

[NovaBoi92]

mine was left for two years and then it started on the button. but then the battery died :(

A rusty gay coloured thing? lol

I've parked it out front on the road, cunningly positioned over a drain lol

Actually, to be fair, the engine was sat at Alex's dad's farm for about 18 months and still fired up almost straight away when Lee did his magic on it.

[Lee]

I was gonna say theres no way it wont start lol.

If it can sit for months on a pallet filling up with straw and dried flakes of cow sh1t, and then start on the button for the first time after installation, im pretty sure it'll cope with a few weeks parked up on a nice clean drive lol

[Pistol Pete]

I voted starts first time.

[Rich]

its a redtop, if it wasnt broken when you parked it last, it will fire up lol

[mayhem]

even my redtop started, and it didnt run for 2 months, and i wired it.

so yours will do fine :)

[Graeme]

I'm with on the button unless the local chavs have been at it

[Adam]

Will start fine.

Get out there and use it ffs!

[Ash]

well I havent heard it yet....

maybe as I popped round and fitted a proper (smallblock) nova engine :p lol

[C14se]

Starts first time

[Jack]

Battery flat as a pancake lol

I'll put it on charge overnight and see how it goes tomorrow (couldn't bump it down the road as the OSF tyre is flat). Annoying, as I fancied using it tonight.

[Ash]

Umm pump the tyre up.... or use a spare...

[Jack]

Effort! Plus I don't want to sit in the road looking like a ned pumping the tyre with a footpump (I was going to hide it in the drive to do that).

[Ash]

:wtf: If you that bothered than take wheel off and then pump it up.

-OR- go and get some proper sized tyres fitted ;)

[Jack]

Or put the spare on thats across where the back seats should be... lol thats how lazy i am

[Gibbo]

[Jack]

[General Baxter]

if you swap the batterys over, that means you wont be tempted to drive the other one,

iv tried that, but the trolls battery is as big as the nova engine lol

[Rickyb]

[Jack]

Calibra tyres FTW, 195/60/15! They fit, couldn't be bothered to change them :D

[loggyboy]
