Bigger bodies wil make a difference,prolly not to noticeable if your running stock tubs but id expect a great improvement when coupled with other mods.Your torque would see the best increase.

It wont clear the noise by running it on the drive,it needs driving and getting up to proper temp,mine always does this even though it had new lifters 5 years ago,will tick till i drive it then noise will go.I wouldnt jump in with additives and oil changes,just get yer hose on when you can and take it out.

Take the rear side panels out and you can get access to the rear of the sill,the wheelarch and the section behind the wheels which rots also.

It can be done BUT you have to be careful,alloy bellhousings have sharp edges !! I knew some one who dropped a cavalier box years ago and it chopped right through to the tendons in his hand on four fingers :cursing: Two people would make a big difference doing the job.

The aiv valves feed hot air to warm the cats up ,cold ones are not efficient,this is the reason in an mot cat test its vital the car is up to temperature.

Just get the nut pool welded up,easy !

Funny though a £38 k car had squealers on the pads instead of wear indicators,with all the other technology it seems mad !

You can lose the idle set up completely as once you go stand alone you can set the throttle bodies to allow air past to give the correct idle.Get some blanks made up like i did on Mad maxes car.

Youll never get the a frame underneath mate,and as stated the box will prolly seize on the way even if you did.

Yeh Pete,your right there,that compressor would run out of puff rather quickly with those tools,prolly blow your car tyre up or run a detail spray gun,but not much else.

Has it not got enough ooomph Gaz,try getting a reciever tank.The cut off tool will need a good compressor to run it.

Jesus those are cheap,absolute bargain for home repairs.

Uk tubs will fit chap but its quite a bit of work if the replacements turn out to be no good,make sure the oil feeds are good if you do use them.Some cars with worn tubs can limp on for a while but it could let go and break up which can empty the engine of oil causing further damage,your call mate really.

Im afraid you prolly have a goosed turbo,with what youve explained its 99% certain.

That looks like the egr pipe.just blank the rubber hose and leave it bud,will be fine.

its just as well i have thick skin Bri Lol,i may even get some pics of myself in raunchy poses on members cars when they are in for rebuilds,any takers ?:winkiss:

After a few pints Dave i bet youve pulled worse :w00t: :lol:

with any luck it will pay more and you can afford to subscribe :x::rofl::slap:

This letter was sent to ther Bristol evening post and published,the writer needs a medal imho. Where did it all go wrong? T ODAY we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: ● Knowing when to come in out of the rain; ● Why the early bird gets the worm; ● Life isn't always fair; ● Maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies, (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and if you did the burglar could sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realise that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason. He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights I Want It Now Someone Else Is To Blame I'm A Victim Not many attended his funeral because so few realised he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing This was sent to me. I thought it should reach a larger audience. Philip Morris, Barton Hill

One of the funniest things i saw was at my last garage,my apprentice broke down in a ford courier van and another lad went out to straight bar him back with his ldv convoy,they couldnt find a towing eye on the front of the courier as its a screw in type and was missing,so Pete pushed him 5 miles on the bar !!! i pissed myself laughing when they pulled up in the yard.

The high level brake light MUST work and if its made up of several bulbs then 50 % of those have to be functional. A quote from testers manual Additional stop lamps fitted and connected must be tested. Where extra lamps are fitted and there is doubt as to whether they are connected, the benefit of this doubt should be given to the presenter.

look dude your just jealous,if youve got it flaunt it :scared: :lol:
