Why std plugs are you not looking to tune it??

Spacing on the colder plugs should be set at 0.9mm.

I shall tune it (actually it flamed the other day which gave me the impression it was or at least overfuelling a little). I just want to get it running alright then i'll add the intercooler. I'll know in about 2 weeks whether i'll do it up or not Ive just gotta see what other problems arise.

As Adam suggest .9mm.

If it was standard then 1 to 1.1mm.

thanks for the reply.

Im about to do these plugs tonight along with oil, wiper blade, fuel filter & maybe coolant.

Out of interested do you think this car has been abused? everything points to it being that way but it still runs I guess.

Rear drivers side brake caliper - needs replacing
Gearbox leaking
Right rear bush worn

Maybe its just me imagining it, still cant believe I picked this beauty up for £70

So if it hasnt been abused its about to be hehe, bring on the drifting!

Mostly everyone at some point has had a rear calliper seize up as thats a pretty common thing as is the rear subframe bushes.

Did you say it sat in a barn for 3 years?
