Smile Thanks

Just a word of thanks to the guys in this forum. Thanks to the info available in it, I've been able to resurect my 1vj. Had usual engine/gearbox problems plus a chisel mechanic had bein in and left his mark. Trawled through the postings to learn what I could. End result was I got hold of an 89/90 18,000 mile 3aj engine, carbs and airbox. Slotted straight in without any problems. Runs like she should. Spent last Sunday rediscovering back roads, dirt tracks that I used to play on years ago. Major fun!!!! This is one of the few places that xt600 info is available. Thanks again, Neil
