GOOD 40 SERIES MECHANIC AROUND MELBOURNE???

Post by kranked_dirt »

does anyone know of a really good mechanic with heaps of experience with 40 series cruisers around melbourne?? I wanna get my 2f up and running the best it can be. Does any one know any mods that could be done to improve performance on the old donk without using more fuel??

Also when i bought her the air pump for the emission control system (i think thats what it is :? ) is missing a belt and one of the hoses is disconnected. Would there be a logical explanation for this?????

any info would be appreciated!

cheers,

Cant help unfortunately with a good mechanic, being driving for 16 years now and still looking for a "GOOD" mechanic, I try and do as much as I can myself with the help of a workshop manual and forums like this one


Cheers Dazz
