Have got her back this morning !! :hyper: :hyper:

 

New discs/pads fitted;Mot ; braided hoses fitted; S2 PTU fitted; 2 new Bridgestones (rear) fitted; oil/ filter change supply + fit.

Fit the auto box cooler also.

What was thought to be a water pump fail turned out to be(with help from the guys on here again) split water pipes near the pump so replaced. Pump returned!! money back :nana2:

 

The guy who did it was great and it cost me £360 in labour, so not bad do you think. Lets just hope his work is good, he he is very exp techn chap.

Time will tell.

 

All i have to do now is get into the dam thing and go for a test drive ! :hyper:

Hello Marcus , you know you,ll have to go for a spin to ...scrub...your new tyres , well its one of the excuses iv,e used before :hyper: glad to hear you back on the road :nana2:

Great to hear you are on the road again Marcus.

Lots of stuff going on to drive to. JAE, Mids Meets, Santa pod etc

Pete,

thanks for that. The only problem with me going to 'meets or Da Pod' is that if i go in the Zed then I stay in the Zed; as once in i; can not transfer out again except by using the portable hoist i have at home. I could follow my mate like i did to Jap Fest but i don't get to rip up the black top then :headvswal so it's a difficult one this......... But i know for one thing i have to make it one way or other. :hyper:

 

Marcus

hi marcus. aint got zed back yet but will still come on sun to sort out your brakes. what time is ok for you.

graeme

Graeme

sorry you not got the Zed yet.

Still it will be good to see you on Sunday and we may get the BBQ out ! :hyper:

marcus

Thats great - Another Zed back on the black stuff!!!!!!!

 

Where did you get the work done if you dont mind me asking??

 

Rich

Hi Rich(thought you cant be rich if you own a Zed :rofl: )

 

Got the work done by a local guy, an ex MOTECH examiner, he has his own work shop with-in his house out buildings (low over heads!) like i said before he did all the work listed for £360 labour; so i guess he don't charge £55 p/h .

 

All seems fine when i went out last night; god it's an easy way to loose your licence in a Zed is it not ?? :headvswal Got to get a lighter right arm !! :eek:

Came home and the wife said i was grinning like the Cheshire cat. :hyper:

 

The only prob we had was the miss caused by the dam plug thing coming off; will sort a clamp out at weekend.

so it's a difficult one this......... But i know for one thing i have to make it one way or other.

 

Yes I can see how tricky it all is. The rest of us need to try harder too to make this work.

Heres a few initial thoughts from me...

We can have a meet nearer to your side of the Mids.

We need to find a venue or venues where the car park if nice n flat and near to the pub entrance or where there are outside tables where you can get the car close to them.

How portable is the hoist??

Do you have a folding chair as well as your electic one.??

Come on guys n gals how are we going to do this???

Nice to see her up & running again Marcus, & what a nice z

if i do say so myself!

Will you be going to J.A.E? Be nice to see the old girl again :cry:

Pete, the answer to the hoist question is not very portable.. i will put a photo up in a bit.

I do have a chair i could transfer into but the problem is it's very much up hill and me being a small person :rofl: with fooked up arms find it a non-starter to transfer out of the Zed this way.

Note to self:-I will go to my gym every day and loose a few pounds !! :D :D

 

I can look out for a good venue for a midlands meet if anyone wants to come this way a bit more (Shrewsbury)

Marcus

Hey up Marcus,

 

Sorry mate, just seen this.

 

Well chuffed that you have it back buddy, really hoping to see you at JAE and i'm sure if you have a word with Ivan (The dark warrior) and im sure he can sort a meet out near you.

 

See you soon buddy

 

Rich
