Ahh! that's interesting. My Q (Last Chance Saloon) has had an intermittent
fault which has only shown up on my last 2 trips to Stoneleigh. I thought it
was a fuelling issue (it may be of course), but it hasn't done it at any other
time (not even on both trips home!) I was thinking it just didn't like going to
Stoneleigh. On the 2018 trip there it wouldn't hold the idle unless the revs
were raised with the throttle. With Mark Cleminson assisting the carb jets were
checked and nothing untoward found. I wondered if the idle cut off valve was
playing up, and when I took the +ve feed off to it, and reconnected I got an HT
jolt through my fingers. The coil was going to be an item to be checked this
year prior to Stoneleigh, and your observation has made me even more inclined
to think the coil may be the problem. Reminds me of the first kit I built
(Dutton Melos)...... The engine cut a few times when exiting sharp RH bends,
and first thought was fuel starvation - When I saw an oil leak from the coil
(and of course replaced it) the fault disappeared. Things (especially
intermittent) aren't always what they first (or second, or third) seem to be.

Sounds like mine when I had an intermittent fault on the coil. New coil
sorted it.

Subject: re: [Quantum Owners] Barry the painter?
A few days ago, I had an e-mail from someone I've not heard of. The Subject
was asking about the next issue of QM [I am the previous editor] but there was
no text in the message part. So I deleted it.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas. Soon I must try to get my 2+2 on the
road again. It goes so far, then stalls. Will start immediately and runs if you
keep the revs up. Bit difficult at roundabouts! Is there a known problem with
the XR2 1.6 litre CVH engine?

Hi all,
hope all Quantumers (not forgetting other kit car owners) had a good
Christmas! I had a message this morning entitled "Brush painting gel coat" from
someone called Barry. If Barry has my email via the group that's not a problem,
but the message had no script, just attachment so looked suspicious I deleted
it. If Barry wants to pick my brains then no problem, can he send another note!
To Jim, Steve or other techi people....... Is it possible (or even likely)
that my computer had been infiltrated by someone who's gathered a subject and
my email name (which isn't used in many places) and sent something malicious?
Martin
