Well i'm back in business, for now at least. The mechanic picked it up Monday and had it done Tuesday, with lots of apologies. It seems to be running pretty smooth, flat idle at 1000rpm in the day and 800rpm at night (with lights on). I'm still pretty scared and probably won't be comfortable till i've gone a few hundred km without drama, but very happy to have it back and working.

The fucked thing was that this guy WAS a recommended mechanic by a friend of mine. He tends to work on Supras, Z cars, Skylines etc so he's more of an EFI/turbo guy, but i would've thought an 18RG would be a piece of piss to deal with after that. I'm still pissed at how long they took, but if this stays happy for another year then i guess it's all good...
