    Struggling to start

    Here's one for you to get your brain working. when starting the hippo, if it doesn't start on the first bite then it takes forever to get going. I usually have to bump it. The dizzy cap and ht leads are just under a year old and the plugs a reasonably new. Don't know how old the coil is. Any...

    Fuel consumption

    I have an after market air box, taken off the cat and the exhaust is blowing. I suppose this will all contribute. Also it revs around 1500-2000 rpm especially after a run. And its hesitant on acceleration

    Smoke

    I'm over the moon that I manage heart surgery on a hippo haha. I let the gf use it tonight, in case it packs up, she local. Rang me earlier saying engine smoking then car wouldn't start.. Think it's a dodgy ht lead.. Gonna have a look later when I finish work

    Smoke

    Done the head gasket.. Finally.. But now the hippo is still smoking..it smells like exhaust fumes.. Its white.. Could it be just the left over coolant in the exhaust.. Took it for a spin after h/g done.. Runs spot on. Not using coolant. Tick over is smooth like before. Just the smoke is worrying
