My Ferret needs help

[Bruce Parker (RIP)]

I have a few flippant answers:

1. Is it better to fix the original and how the hell do you get to it?

It's a Ferret, you can't get to it, however pulling the engine is the correct way to start most repairs.

2. If the pump is faulty, where do I get replacement parts?

Not any place accessible.

3. Would an electric pump deliver too much fuel?

No, punch holes in it until the correct pressure is obtained.

4. It bellows black smoke so thats a fuel problem?

Either that or a Ferret problem.

5. It runs like a bag of poo?

It's British AND a Ferret. Of course it runs like a bag of poo.

6. Do you put a drop of oil in the genny to make it work?

Can't hurt to try. But prayer has been shown to be more effective.

7. Where can I get a new set of plugs from?

Another Ferret.

8. Is it worth dropping the engine out for a good clean and inspection.

It's worth pulling the engine out to change a fan belt.

Thanks
Colin.

You're welcome
Bruce
