Trusted Machanic Required for my GQ Patrol
I've been tuneing and servicing my own cars since i can remember.
But due to resonds that i wont go into, i find myself in need of a motor machanic.
To do a tune up [points] on a worn sharft and to tweek the LPG .On my Patrol GQ
Nothing major just someone whos switched on and wont charge the earth.
Someone near Burleigh Heads or Curumbin would be good , any recomondations would be appreseated

If the dizzy shaft is worn you will need to get that fixed or its a waste of time, more so with LPG. I reckon you are having lots of backfires when running on lpg

Re: Trusted Machanic Required for my GQ Patrol
yer lve thought of the convet
but out bush point or condenser is a easy fix
did you up your coil to a big banger or somthing a little more modest

No need to change coil keep your ballist resister also keep your old points and condenser in glovebox if any trouble which is not likely only takes 15 to 20 minutes to change back as my mechanic said a lot of the early GQs problems was their ignition system
