Hi all welcome to the listing of my Chevrolet Camaro. 


Reg is S491JBA


Bought this 2 years ago as a running driving car advertised as “MINT” 

It wasn’t mint and failed on the way home. It still starts and drives but misfires terribly and smokes pretty bad. It’s thick white smoke, it’s not overheating and oil pressure is good.

Starts up misfires splutters and backfires. I did actually just drive it 30 miles to my other storage facility and surprisingly made it. Check engine light is flashing OBD shows misfire on CYL 2. I replaced the bare minimum a single plug and it didn’t make a difference. I have a feeling it may be a stuck open injector as it stinks of raw fuel in the smoke. 

I removed the leads and forgot the order so just winged it, definitely doesn’t help but it is what it is at this point. 

Heavy oil leak from sump just had it up on the ramp definitely the sump. It’s a big leak. 

I’m not a mechanic by any means but always had intentions of saving the old girl but time isn’t in my favour. I’m also running out of storage so it must go. 

120k on the dash mix of miles and KM. 
No mot 
Cat N previously. I never applied for the v5 so this needs doing. 

Some fettling and figuring out what’s wrong with her and you’ll have a cheap American muscle. 
Assume it needs a rebuild of some sort or it may be a simple enough fix. If it doesn’t sell I’ll try souring a second hand engine as they’re cheap enough and drop it in, saves me faffing around as I don’t have the time. 
Again it may be simple enough for someone I’m just not able to entertain it. 
Left hand drive
