    What a beauty! I have only come to love older cars like these (non-sports/muscle cars) in recent years. The P1800 is such a neat little car.

    This is the episode that inspired me to get my 1800 running again.

    Oh for a time when a head would only take a week, I took mine into a shop in Vancouver last October and got it back in May! Much the same, new valve seats, replaced the valves, double springs and sleeves and stem seals.

    Been working on mine for almost a year and will be fine soon. Mine is fuel injection, but runs rough.

    all good but this was really about maintenance of what you have rather than improving on it as you would have with say freer air cleaners and exhaust...

    Should have checked air mixture screws on carbs first, as the plugs where black and running far too rich.
