Break in at 250miles. Running fine and already revved to 7000 once or twice. Feels good. Meanwhile I had to change gas from 95 to 98 because I was hearing some knocking at low revs (lowered the ignition timing also).

Vibrations are still here, pretty annoying.

MOT day today.

Best regards

Maybe it wasn't a bad idea to add some octane booster mixed with 98 RON fuel.

There are some american products very good that we used to use in our old Celica GT4 on rally stages.
At this moment i can't remember the brand...
Keeping the AE86 alive!

Hm

american brand of additives is STP i think. Preety good additives, octane booster e.t.c.

Apardal maybe there is a problem with your central axis. Sometimes it gives some vibration due to wear. It revolves out of his center.
