Hi Guys, new to this forum. My name is Tim Beaubien / TRB57 and have a 1977 MGB, a 1952 MG TD and just recently picked up a 1988 Lotus Turbo Esprit. I actually chased this car for 10 years and we finally came to a price.
The car has 19,000 original miles and is very clean. I bought from the second owner and he put very few miles on it. He would start the car about once a year and do about a 10 mile drive then back into heated storage.
Recently the car is running rough on start up but levels off after about 5 to 10 minutes. Still runs very sluggish and then stalls after about 20 minutes and will not start until the next day. I’m thinking fuel pumps??? Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks, TRB57 / tim B.
