It was made clear that the engine was not running well (see my thread on fuel injection) and while it will now idle I think the injectors are leaking as it's running rich. I wonder if the fuel injection on your car is working OK.
And I find the steering quite heavy so there might be work required there. How is the steering on your car?

Hi Roy,

The best solution for heavy steering on the P1800ES is the Charles Atlas chest expander - build up those arm muscles!
