Refitting the Choke Cable

After a break from the car for a couple of weeks to sort my house out, I took the cable clamp bolt off the 300se's main air suspension valve to replace the choke clamp I broke by overtightening it on the 220.

Also cleaned the plugs (again) and narrowed the spark gap to .4mm from .6mm. Adjusted the idle and jets on the carburettor and the advance on the distributor, but need gas analyser to get it right. Running OK though, no clouds of black smoke.

Eventually got the passenger door fitting correctly enough for the MOT.

Tomorrow need to bleed the brakes, finish sorting the doors out and replace the horn switch on the 220 which I nicked off the 300se, then get the sills welded and hopefully it will pass its MOT.
