BobDrye Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hal: I would, but I will be Branson MS until June the 3rd. If it's not fixed by then I will come by. :ack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EburgE Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Since Bob has been so enthusiastic about helping, maybe we should wait until June. I can hobble through the title/registration process in the mean time. Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Kid's baseball games are on Saturdays. Perhaps I can break free on a Sunday morning if you're around. You might as well find the injector part number and see if any local parts stores have them in stock, just in case that's the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Budlite Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Wish you were closer Hal...it'd be nice to work on somebody else's problems for a change! Bruce :7drive: PS: Sorry my torque wrench didn't work in reverse. :ack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1Steve Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Hi Hal, It was good to meet you last weekend. Made your 7 my new screen-saver. Did you ask your engine builder about the injector problem ? I think it's a easy fix, you will enjoy it running on all four. If I had one I would have sent it to you, never had engine problems. Sorry I can't make it on Sat., pool, lawn and all that stuff are calling. Best of luck, you'll get it fixed, you have done a great job on that 7, I really like it. Happy Holiday, Steve Novelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EburgE Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Hey, thanks anyway. I decided to take the car to MidAtlantic Caterham this weekend and have them check it out. The inspection is part of the Caterham package, and they can probably look at the alternator/injector problems too. The engine builder also offered to fix the injector, although his guess is that an adjustment is required in the TWM injection system. On an even more positive note, I drive the car on a twenty mile trip this week. Loads of fun. No problems. First real drive ever!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
