Thanks all.

I have now given the carb a bit of a service, replaced all of the tyres, stuck new plugs in and made up new HT leads. Interestingly the coil lead had a "multi-spark" device fitted which I suspect to be quackery. Either way I thought the B20 should have been a bit smoother than it was and it now is!

While doing a walk around to note any further necessary work beyond what I listed in my first post - I can't help but think the front ride height is wrong given the car has negative rake. Perhaps somebody knows what the book figure for the front ride height should be before I go exploring with and spanner and/or ordering springs?

Also, the diff is a bit noisy. An easy oil change job I hope?
