Posts: 227I grew up in Adelaide, and never heard of anything like it…. Contact sporting car club of SA – http://www.sportingcarclubsa.org.au/ Pretty sure they are the biggest car club in SA, with MG car club second (dad’s a MG car club member).

Posts: 227Did another skid pan day, this time at night under lights. Was just as much fun as the first time. Got plenty of gopro footage will put something up when I get a chance.
The gov scrooge showed up with noise meters… I got a warning for putting the pedal to the floor when I spun, was trying to see if I would keep spinning

Posts: 227update – I changed the ignition module a lil over a week ago now. I have done 3 or 4 drives over a hour long and so far, touch wood, the gremlins have not come back. I even went and did the identical drive i did last time it played up. I’m a not willing to claim it as fixed yet but it is starting to look that way. Will give it another couple weeks before claiming it as solved.

Posts: 227you live in Qld and don’t use A/C? I’m in Bris and crank mine all the time, but I think my leather seats may have something to do with it. I used to live in Darwin – thank god my A/C worked….

Posts: 227Cheers manta. I wondered that myself but since I have changed the fuel filter recently, i’ve never let the tank go below a quarter and I still got it coughing and spluttering since then. The car had three quarter full tank too.
I wondered if I could get the tank cleaned out by someone – anyone know who does it in Brisbane?

Posts: 227One other thing I will say – having a $10k car meant I wasn’t too worried about writing it off. But if I had a $50k car I may have been a little more hesitant. Another mate doesn’t want to go back cos he had a sh*t ya pants moment in his $75k car, and I think the flashes of what his missus would say freaked him out.

Posts: 227I’ve got the new ignition module installed – will go for a long drive tomorrow hopefully and see if I have any dramas…
Thinking I should change the dizzy, leads and coil aswell due to the age of the car. Anyone got any recommendations?

Posts: 227Cheers FLI. Where did you get the momo one from?
I think i’ll look at getting mine retrimmed if I can find someone that can do the HSV stamp in it.
Mate that I got the car from (8 years ago) said he looked at getting a new one when he first got it (5 years before that) but the stamp wasn’t deep. Just if he bought a dozen of em!

Posts: 227Had the car for 8 years and never touched the dizzy, so I reckon it’ll be worth changing to. Did think about just replacing everything (plugs, leads, dizzy, dizzy cap, dizzy rotor button, coil, module) but rather find out what is actually wrong… but you know what chasing the gremlins are like – I just may never actually find out.
