Cooling down under the cherry trees at Prescott Hill Climb.

I used this chap for my gen6 ECU repair, £75 - took around a week from posting it out to getting it back https://www.johnmears.co.uk/ecu.htm

Finally looking pretty...

Well done mate , your car is becoming a bit of a magazine star recently ! Look forward to getting a copy when its out I didnt know you used to have a Capri , got any pics of it ?

Had a great day in the week. My Celica was involved in a photo shoot for the Classic & Sports Car magazine, taking Malcolm’s place I must add, mine and a Mk2 Capri and a Vauxhall Firenza were there. Many pictures were taken including a lot of driving shots which I think will make great pictures. Simon Hucknall who organised it drove each car which was strange for me as I’m the only one who’s ever driven it apart from the mot tester. Apparently it will be in the September edition, so looking forward to that. Nice that my car has been getting some recognition lately. Hopefully all good for the club. IMG_1965.mov IMG_1966.mov

Well done Phil 👏🏻👏🏻

If lambda is spot on then high CO is likely to be cat itself or an exhaust blow on the engine side of the cars lambda sensor. It can also be imbalence between cylinders caused by injector issues or air leak in one of the intake runners but that's less likely. With unknown history and if there's no obvious exhaust blow I would start with cat.

As the car is new to me and the boy we're not going to do a great deal to it over the summer. Get the paint as good as we can, wrap the spoiler and scoop. He's 12 and brought up on GTA and Forza etc so he wants to fit under-glow - not my thing but it's his car! And then just enjoy the car. Take it to a few shows and drives at the weekends and stuff. Then over winter we'll take the bonnet off and respray it, put some form of anti-corrosion treatment on the underside, the rear discs and pads may well need doing but then etc

Sly' probably didn't mean they would reuse it on another car, but they might be tempted to sell it for the scrap value which used to be around £200.
