Bought some Venom injectors of Ebay. (I know... :smw: ) I have delivered them for testing. There was no documentation with the injectors i got...The company that are testing them need to know how much they are supposed to delivery under a set pressure in order to see if they deliver what they are supposed too... Hope this makes sense to someone. not the best explenation i guess...

Been having a crap time at home and work due to me getting divorced and having made my spouse a major shareholder and director of the company many years back. So I gave Spare parts a run out today and pull in the the petrol station to fill up with V-power and did just that. only to realise 4ft from the pump that i'd actually put £59.52 of V-power diesel in it. :headvswal :headvswal Spent rest of day getting recovered and draining and flushing it out. What amazed me was how fast it went from tank to engine. Due to the fact that it is a presurised fuel rail on a continuas loop. 4 feet is litterally how far I got. Fingers crossed hat no lasting harm is done.

Can anyone help? The little black box on the drivers side of the engine bay near the bulk head, is that the boost sensor? if it is, what does it do? The reason i ask, im sure ive read that if you have a EBC then this box can be removed? Is that true? Thanks Ant

My car has a strange noise coming from the front end. I noticed it as this week i've been driving down roads with speed bumps, it sounds almost like the front of the car is scraping on the speed bump, but its not?? It only happens when the cars cold, so for the first 5-10 mins??? Bizzare !!

Wondering if anyone can help ?? thanks guys

Again the japs have made me speechless :rofl:

Does anyone have a template (or ideas) for the cutting of the rear panels when fitting the strut bar for a swb? Thanks

Saw a blue Zed, L***PTO at about 3:00pm today travelling along Gypsy Lane towards Victoria Road East. First Zed I have seen in Leicester since I bought mine in October.

Just got around to changing my spark plugs, they were black in colour like burnt. I know since I have had the car it is over fuelling and is smells when first started of petrol quite bad. :o The question I have is would it be the APEXI AFC II, that is setup incorrect that is making the car over fuel. As I have checked all the regular connections to make sure it not them. Thanks.

can anyone recommend a reliable place close to or preferably in Leicester to change a Z water pump? obviously the car cant move - is it possible to do on the driveway? if i can help it id rather not have it flatbedded away due to cost :( i need to get her on the road again as i broke my daily driver too (guess what - water pump and head gasket)

Hi gang, I get a bit of gearbox whine (manual) only when the weather is relly cold say only 4 degrees or below for around 2 minutes of driving. The noise is there from after around 30 - 40 seconds of driving and changes pitch when a different gear is selected i.e. low pitched when in 1st or 2nd, then a bit higher in 3rd, higher again in 4th and then again in 5th. It then changes if I go down the box also. It does it with the clutch fully depressed and randomly selecting gears changes the pitch. Only lasts for a max of 2 minutes then nothing. Any ideas what it could be and how cheap (LMFAO) expensive it's gonna be to fix ? CheerZ Paul

well apart from the odd coil here and there needing replaced, brake calipers, Hicas removed, Oil cooler rad fins bent, sump dented (previous owner grounded possibly), Centre propshaft doughnt broken ? (sussed the vibration from gear box). nothing sort of big big priced until........(advised) both rear inner sill's corroded. Big oil leak (possible rear main oil seal). now the guy has said the rear oil seal is approx 16hours labour and also said he reckons the sills been done once already so its pointless doing it again. I'm so stuck right at this moment what ya think? :headvswal

One of the terminals has come adrift of the rear screen . What`s the best stuff to stick it back with ? Clear silicone didn`t work and I don`t want to insulate it from the screen by wopping too much goo on there . Thank you kindly :D
