    Sounds good. I think the car had done very few miles over the last couple of years. When brought out of hibernation it may have had some 'old-fuel' problems. Worth looking at the fuel filter under the rear seat squab (passenger side). Could be partially blocked. Check for garbage under the filter too; often missed, and will get sucked up. Check that a plastic clip has been fitted to keep the two halves of the filter held together (so called "orange clip", but often white!).

    Guess I can remove Jimmy Hutchinson's car from the 'Complete List of 260s For Sale' then
