    this sounds about right... it still doesnt explain why it ran, and then gave up...? And i dont really care about working on the formula car anyway, it doesnt look anything that special, i just want the bit of paper at the end of the course, im going to be the engineer for my mate who races a nova E16SE at brands in the 150bhp/tonne class so that'll make up for any shortcomings methinks...

    it could have been 'ok' to start up but then too much fuel has sooted/wet the plugs a treat etc.

    bet if you cleaned the plugs, left them out for a day it would do the same (start, spit, stop).
