I'm just trying to rule out a few things before going insane... Finally got the car idling nice but it goes to shite if any electrics are turned on ie fans/lights... Drove it for about an hour yesterday before it started to misbehave/backfire/hesitate. So assumed it had not been charging the battery on the run.. borrowed an alternator to give that a whirl and different battery and get the same result. Just moved the earth and get the same result.. going loopy....
