After I lost my Xtreme last year in the accident and got insurance payout at Christmas, I started looking for a new car a few weeks ago. I was looking for a prebuilt example this time so that I could use it quickly and save the hassle of SVA, etc and it wasn't going to be another Xtreme or yellow or a pinto engine...but... when I looked on e-bay and found a yellow Xtreme virtually ready for SVA with a bid closing at 6pm that night, and it is in Bristol about 6 miles away from where I live, it seemed it was inevitable that I would once again be a Quantum owner. So, I now have an Xtreme in the garage needing, hopefully, minor works to get it ready for SVA. I have only just started looking at it and a couple of questions have come to light and I was hoping for some advice re SVA requirements:-
1. Do the indicators need to be self cancelling? mine do not for some reason. if needed can anyone advise how to get woring again 2. Front flexible brake hoses: off side is stretched tight on "full" lock one way but near side looks fine the other way. Can anyone assist with any ideas why this would be? Hoses are not twisted. 3. This chassis is older than my previous Xtreme and I was looking for a chassis stamp but could not find one: any ideas where to look, or did older Xtremes not have chassis numbers stamped on them? 4. This car has a pinto engine with twin webber carbs that need tuning as they only tick over and if you increase revs they just sputter. How easy is it to balance and set up the carbs or would I be better getting someone in to do hte work. If so, any idea how much this costs? Thanks for your assistance. I am looking forward to finishing and getting back on the road soon Ian Mac --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
