Replace Power Steering Fluid
Don't run the power steering pump to remove oil. Do as above or remove lower pipes off the 'resy' connections(with a suitable flatish container underneath to collect the oil) and allow the resy to drain. Top up and bleed if required. If you manage to keep the pipes fully primed, then you wont have to bleed the system, just fill up the resy, move your steering around and top up.

Injectors/Plenum pull
Iv'e got a weak clicking from one of my injectors and the piston isn't firing. Ive checked for spark & its fine. Is there a way of testing the injector electronically (Multimeter). If I do go for injector replacement and pull the plenum, what seals gaskets etc will I require & where's the best place to purchase them? Many thanks.

Wide arch rear body, how to widen rear wheel base?
I've been looking at the various wide body kits available and was wondering are wheel spacers the only releastic option to widening the rear wheel base or are there any after market kits available? How have others got around filling the arch after rear has had the wide body kit added? Thanks, Tony :gunsmilie:

fully equiped garage to let
It all depends on cubic size of the unit mate. A fully equipped unit would cost a bomb. My Dads garage cost in excess of £20,000 a year, Ok you can work on a good 8 cars at once but its still a lot of money. Check out rightmove or business lets.

Anyone else any suggestions??

One cylinder, One pain in the asss
Removed the coil pack and spark plug, changed the coil pack with one I knew to be good, I then put the spark plug in the coil pack, ran a wire from the negative battery terminal back to the spark plug and turned the engine over. Good spark. For the injector all I could do was to listen using the screwdriver trick.

One cylinder, One pain in the asss
Always something goes wrong when you want to take advantage of the weather. Ive got a spark but no fire in one of the cylinders (the most awkward one to get to). Injector is clicking away fine, coil pack is good, correct voltage at the plug. Is there away of checking that the fuel is being delivered or could it be something else? Cheers, Tony

300zx on Fifth Gear !!
Just watched it...and they called us cheapskates because we couldn't afford a Lamborghini. They didn't totally slate the Zed and gave some good points to look out for when buying (Turbo's, rattle's etc). Shame they missed out on all the other possible issues that you could have, would of made a good program.:hyper:
