I'm with the engineers on this. Why take pride in the fact your fueling is badly tuned?

make the most of it, your future car will be silent and have so many safety features you won’t know you’re driving it.

Any fans of pops and bangs should hear Will Hall in his Force taking on a hillclimb ..... sounds like the Chinese army assaulting the track!!

Last year, I'd had a little fiddle and set her up a little too lean. However, I had a glorious run down through Cheddar Gorge as she popped and banged all the way. I think the general public were a lot more forgiving as it was a classic Morgan.....

Quick tweak in the Travelodge carpark sorted her out..

I bang and pop quite a lot, but is usually after I've eaten something I shouldn't.

Good chance with the way things are going, you wont be driving it. What a depressing thought! frown
