Got in from work tonight and thought to myself that I'd see what the new HID's look like in the dark, as you do :D

So got the keys, stuck her up and she started first time, but seemed not to run very smoothly. Then she started to die off with the revs slowing down. "Strange" I thought. But then it struck me, what, I presumed, was the problem.............. The air is very cold, and I've still got the, badley, split turbo hoses on, that arnt even clamped up (just shoved on as temp), so anyway I'd seen what I wanted to see so just switched her off and went back inside.

A few mins ago i went into the lounge and immediatley realised what the REAL problem was, as it was sat on my table!!!!!!!!! It was the MAF connected to the new APEXi filter, being kept out of any bad weather, as my bumper isnt on yet :D .......................... What a prat :wack: :xxx:

D'oh!

:slap: ;)

Mornin Dave!! :D

ROFL :rofl:

:x:...:rofl:...:slap:HEAD....

Arr well, there you go :D

 

 

At least the car works, which amazes me in the first place ;) Having done so much and replaced so many bits, both mechanical and electrical, as I don't class myself a mechanic by anyones standard, I was surprised it even started the other day :D and yes it did have the MAF and APEXi on then ;) :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Nearly as bad as someone here who's auto Z wouldn't start........

 

.....coz he left the shifter in D :slap:

Thanks Steve, nice of you to say so.

I'd have loved a nice warm garage........... £5k? I wish, the one I'd planned would have cost at least £8k....... 25 Foot long by 11 Foot wide :D, fit the Zed in with ease, and plenty of room to work on her with the door shut :D But sod it, I'll have to see what the new house brings, probably won't be that big though :rolleyes:

No prob Dave, credit where it's due and all that

 

£8k..... not nice...

 

I priced up one for my drive, it would have ben 25 by 15 with an 18foot electric roller shutter door (£1000 for the door alone) and it was only about £5000 all in. from Comptons or someone.... that was about 2 or so years ago though....

 

would be nice though..... My dining room is about big enough for the Zed to go in, wonder what the wife would say if I offered to fit massive french doors!!!! :mac1: :slap:

 

 

:rofl:

I am sure that Baggins done that last year :rofl: :o

 

Heh heh....

 

.....maybe Mac, but I don't like to name names :dance:

 

Richard :cool:
