I suspect SNH is talking about a Chevy Caprice, PM!

I'm prepared to be corrected.

Chevy is right. I got an e-mail to http://www.thegrid.co.uk from a guy in the States asking me for advice. That's all he sent me....

Steve, tell him to check out his Chiltern manual, 'cos if he's playing with the carb he should have one!
