If it blows up i`ll have to fit a 1/12 scale petrol remote control car engine in it, cant afford more than that!!
Fitted my plugs and put the car back together now. The Lambda sensor I bought was wrong!?!?! so its going back again. ****! It appears to be running okay at present, no hesitation, but its always been irregular/intermittant so time will tell.
Swiss cottage - I said it wouldnt come back on the date you`d been advised, and quite frankly im very sorry to have been right It`ll be worth the wait mate
And btw, I have a club stand pass for you for Santa pod, 9/10/05, if you want it

Swiss Cheese you must be well P1SSED, it must be a good 3/4 weeks, including the week before the last meet that it's taken so far.
Also i still havn't heard back about your windows, do you know if your glass is in the car still, or if it's out?

sorry mate have been a tad busy and this whole "not ready malarky" is not helping, as i have to pick my parents up from luton today and take them back on sunday complete with luggage, golf clubs etc etc and there is no way i am going to be able to fit them all in the noddy car
still want the windows tinted so am up for the offer.
You have PM

Im actually so technically gifted that I once fitted all 4 wheels to my car too.
unfortunately mechanic Jim had to re-do them as i`d forgotten about the directional tread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!****!!!!!!!!!!!

Leave him alone Paul, he's my gimp mechanic
Almost the blind leading the blind me thinks
BTW its the blue samco hose set so that includes turbo, intercooler and then the useless one because I have a BOV fitted, I am guessing that the recirculating valve uses the 3rd hose whcih is now occupied by dump vale and its cap.
Oh well you win some you lose some ...

If you can fit these then you are certainly made of stronger stuff than Cliff "Ray Charles " Judson and Chris " Stevie Wonder " Dodsworth
Here is the picture
U shaped one would normally go where the recirculating valve was
Turbo one is an absolute ******* as its tucked well under the engine
The only one that cliff and I were confident about was the Intercooler one (fat short one pictured) Useless arent we

wait until you try to fit a whole coolant hose kit or even a turbo inlet pipe
