    After the engine warms up and I drop the choke the oil pressure light flickers telling me of low oil pressure, but the gauge reads near 60? Any ideas?

    There's an obvious misfire occurring. I've cleaned out the distributor cap, seems to have made it run smoother but it's still misfiring. I'm gonna take the spark plugs out and have a look at them. Any ideas on how to diagnose this? Thanks.

    I've put a new fuel filter in, just to be sure no rubbish is coming from the tank. Freed those pipes, and revved the sh*t out of it hahaha, seems to have fixed the problem. Although now it's spitting oil hahaha. The powersteering seems to be having a funny turn, the belt is skipping on full...

    Now the electrics are going crazy, the oil pressure lamp is coming on when I press the brakes, and there is a funny noise from the pump :S haaha

    Unfortunately I don't think this has cured the issue :( it lost power, I left if for not even a minute, and now it's fine again. It makes no sense hahaha

    Don't suppose you can see anything else on the images that is obviously wrong? Hahahaa

    So that would be the left hand pipe, facing the engine?

    Currently sat in it. I turn the ignition, it starts. As soon as I put my foot anywhere near the throttle, it stalls.

    If it were a carb issue. Surely it would have a constant lack of power? :S

    Another one I'll try, although last time I did that, it nearly killed our cat. Hahah
