I've got a load of old Montego parts buried deep in the garden shed. I'll also have a look if the old carb is still lying around and let you know if it is later today. And if anyone is still managing to run an old Montego, as previously stated, I've got some used spares for it, and if you're interested, a small donation will secure them - collect only though - as you'll need to see them to make sure that they are the right ones for your car. I had two Montego's, one on a B plate and one on an F (1989) plate [1], and there were differences between them on some parts. [1] The F plate was a write off after an accident, and I did a deal with the insurance company and kept the car and stripped it for spares to keep the B plate on the road for a while. BTW, I'm not a dealer, I just want to get rid of the stuff now as I could do with the space. Cash
