Barillo Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 Hi to all folks reading this Manta forum. My name is Bar which I am very glad 2 be on the forum since recently becoming a first time owner of a pretty clean 2.0 GTE exclusive Hatch owner up in Inverness. Its not running and has been sitting for lets say a couple of years but I really want to revive it and get it fully roadworthy I have always loved these cars and the styling. So far I have enjoyed reading various technical & fixing posts and thru one post found a great parts source in Germany which I ordered a new air intake pipe as old one is shredded. This Mantas engine turns over and has fired a couple times but thats it. I am going to have 2 logically try to get it firing on all cylinders over next week or so and any help or advise would be gratefully welcome. Another thing is the door and boot locks don't lock which is a pain but the single worn key I have does turn the ignition. I looked for replacements and advise on this problem online already but could not find much useful help really. Ideally I think full set of new locks would be best. Can anyone in the know about these GTEs advice me on new or replacement locks? Regards. Bar 1 Quote
