Just got home
3.50am.But and this is a flashback it was 1.50am and i was going home through Strathfield accelerating up hill when all of a sudden cough fart hiccup
cough another cough and i thought hello hello whats going on,engine was still running but very rough like 2 outa 4 cyls so i scanned the horizon
looking for the next exit and coughed to a halt.It would start but not idle so i started pulling leads off 2 at a time still the same or so it sounded
anyway after an hour of checking my wife turned up and then i found i had spark to all plugs and fuel to the accelerater pump but still running
rough,i thought it might have been some dud fuel id filled up the day before and had removed my fuel filter.And then it wouldnt start at all
bull**it,the starter relay was working so it could be the starter solenoid,yep sure enough the plug came off and when i was playing with the wiring it
must have pulled it away instead of just touching.Anyway kicked her over ran rough for a minute then bingo its 3.35am.
