    Blueflame Blowing ?

    My worst fears have come true, Sounds as if the exhaust is blowing quite heavily from the front. Sounds very much like a Nova Truck..... Wonder if the strong smell of petrol at start up has anything to do with it... Will let you know what the garage say,

    My horn keeps blowing fuses but there doesn't seem to be any pattern to it, i.e. it doesn't blow as soon as i use it. I've tried disconnecting one horn at a time and putting a new fuse in but it still breaks the fuse each time. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

    Blowing exhaust manifold and no top end speed

    Really struggling with the car and its :censored: me off. I've basically no top end speed, really struggling to get above 60, and at lower speeds really having to work it. Could a blowing exhaust manifold cause this? At the moment I have a Powerflow jobby on, but thinking of getting rid of that.
