I bought a 1.0 nova last week, very clean little car. But was told rappers needs setting that's why had bit of a miss, well done that didn't help. Was then pointed to head gasket as water was low and horrible so done headset and oil and filter only to find the distributor was knackeries too so replaced today and still it pops and that through carb and misses still.... Anyone have any ideas? If not I'm going to just sell which is a shame as it's a 50k 3door hatch just in need of minor care!

Bin it and fit something more apt like a 1300 carb, or even an xe lol

Have looked for a complete xe or even a 2.0 8v set up but can't find any about! Typical!!
