Do you really tghink that this little island we live on is going to make a difference to the global effort. I work in the power indusrty and I have been to places like Brazil and Thialand where they don't give a sh1t about CO2 emmissions. We are saving a few grammes here and there but they are spewing it into the atmosphere like there's no tomorrow. If the government are so bothered then perhaps they should be ferried around at our expense in a Toyota Prius instead of those gas guzzling limos. Makes my blood boil. Tax upon tax upon tax and always the same people who pay more and suffer. I'm boiling now!.

Cheers guys, Did it at the weekend and running sweet so far. Steve.

Hi, Yes it is.

anyone???

Falcon Engineering, Skippers Lane, Middlesbrough. 01642 469732 or yellow pages. Superb. If you go see Steve Crawford, tell him I said Hi. Steve Hart.

Just occasionally, when I am stopped at lights or something and the engine is warm, I get a couple of shudders from the engine and the revs drop accordingly, like a slight mis-fire. It runs perfectly well apart from this. Any ideas?. Steve.

What, even though Tesco are offering 5p off a litre???.

What exactly does that button do then?.

So, where do you buy petrol?.

Falcon Engineering in Middlesbrough. They are really good. Contact Steve Crawford. Give him my regards. Steve hart.

Where can I get some from chaps.

Try getting some wipers off the dopy prats....................impossible. COMPUTERSAYSNOHHHH DOH.

People who are turning right and don't move to the middle of the road to leave enough room to get through. Anyone driving along with their indicator on for no reason. Especially on the motorway when you don't know if they want to pull out or not. Those a holes who see any performance car coming near them and start acting like prats because of jealousy or whatever part of their wiring is incorrect. All of the above. OH! and the woman in Grimsby two weeks ago who saw me driving past with the roof panels out and was clearly seen to mouth the words f*****g fat arse**le. BEEAATCCHH.

Hi Mate, Your dead right, it's the speed sensor on the gearbox. You shouldn't drive it really because the HICAS doesn't know what's what and can turn unexpectidly. Cheers, Steve.

I've had both and the manual is much better.

I've just scraped through the MOT but I need new shockers fast. Anyone got any good ones (no racing specials please, I want to keep my teeth). Or, anyone know where I can get some good ones in the trade. Cheers, Steve.

Hi All, If you want a Z specialist in the North East that won't break the bank, look no further than Falcon Engineering in Middlesbrough. Steve Crawford and his team are experts, relaible, honest and put you first. They always keep you informed and have sorted out problems on my Z with minimum fuss and maximum effort. I have called him and he has dropped everything and been there within half an hour to help me. Highly recommended and if you do go, give Steve my regards. Cheers, Steve Hart.

Hi All, I'd like to find out who has the lowest mileage zed in the club. I think my car is pretty unique having one owner from new until I bought it last month. Anyway, I'll get the ball rolling, my car, as of this morning has 38119 miles on the clock. This verified by 14 stamps in the book (by the supplying dealer) and all the old MOT's. Anyone do any better?. Steve.

Thanks guys. Did the jobs recommended and all fine for now. Great site this saves a fortune in garage bills. Steve.

There you go again with those TLA's. What's a TPS please.

Respect mate.

Soprry mate but I'm no mechanic. What's a CTS?. Cheers, Steve.

Hi All, I have a problem with the idle speed on my car. It happens once the car is warmed up. It will be sitting at normal idle (just under 1000rpm) and then it jumps to about 1800 to 2000rpm. It will say like this for a while and then it is an intermittent problem after that. Everything else is OK, I have no other running problems. This car has been main dealer serviced from new and I'm pretty sure it hasn't had any connectors cleaned etc. so I reckon that might be a start, but which ones?. Cheers, Steve Hart.

Hi Mate, I had one of my zeds maintained by Falcon Engineering in Middlesbrough. I have since moved to Lincolnshire but I would recommend them anytime. Steve crawford is the owner and he is a zed expert. I think the phone number is 01642 469732 from memory but they are in the yellow pages anyway. If you use them and meet Steve, tell him I said hello. Cheers, Steve Hart.

I've got an original set up from a UK 1993 TT if you want it.
