Right well the GT has been off the road since June and they Skyline is goin off road now for the winter so time for the Starlet to make a comeback. I booked MOT for yesterdat @5.10pm. Have been starting the car since went off road and driving out back roads to keep it fresh. Fitted new handbrake cable, cv boot and fixed any other little things that were bugging me.
Drove to mot centre last night full of smiles, passed emissions test, passed all lights test then car wouldn't start again. I had just put half tank of petrol in it before i left the house aswell. Tried for good hour and still nothing so ended up with a tow truck home. Thanks to Jay for talking me through a few suspected problems while i was sitting there so gna have to start from scratch and work my way round the whoile car.
Strange though, i have a 255lph fuel pump with ignition on i usually hear the wine from it but nothing last night. Never had any problems with this car. To top it all off the MOT tester then came outside n told me he was failing the car on the taillights as they are too dark. There is a slight smoke done on them but car has passed mot for the past 4 years like that i presume.
