lets just say i took the readings from number 6 and 4 and they are not good so i didnt go any further.. engine rebuild on its way ;) going to start looking around soon. forged pistons uprated bottom end. bigger injectors too :)

oh, so how much thats set ya back then?

ahhh i see, thought so. well i hope its a good one coz its me mates and i aint seen it yet. ok well im off to do the test fingers crossed.... bye

how am i guna see the result if im in the car turning the ignition gggrrrrr. do i need someone to help?

im will also have all the plugs out, so shouldnt need to have throttle on. but should i disconnect the ptu so i dont get a spark?

im about to do a compression test, but not 100% sure what i should do. i know i need to put the gauge in place of the spark plug and turn the ignition but what else?

good morning :) Real bad smoke hay :S mine isnt smoking to bad mind you. puffs out smoke when you release throttle after being on boost for a few seconds. so what did yours end up being? rings? turbos?

Great news. Thats cheered me up for the day. :)

Im expecting some insurance money soon....... i better be anyway.

When ive parked up the zed i get out and start walking to whereever it is im off to and i cant help looking back at it, sometimes i stop and have a good stare. People must think im mad. who looks outside their window on the top floor for a great birds eye view? especially if its parked across the road, it just looks so sexy.

but say the centre prop bearing noise combined with the correct exhaust note you would get dessonance.

i bet if ya concentrate while driving you could probably get the too notes to match and it would sound straight if ya get my drift, its hard to explain. like strumming the same string on two guitars at the same time with one slightly tuned diferently and if ya tune it out even more then the two notes separate more and more.

See the thing is, if your exhaust note is similar to another kinda noise note ya getting at 50mph you get something called dissonance where two notes are just off eachother.

I hate them kinda probs where it could be a number of things and this is one of them :( ive got a slight hesitation when pulling off but ive got so used to driving it like that now. gggrrrrrr

does it sound like that at idle and under load?

yeah i put the metal discs back in. im going to do a compression test 2mow.

you mean it smoked when you came OFF the throttle?

There was no restrictor in that one i dont think just a litle wire thing bout the size of the top of my little finger. it didnt lok riht to me.

a foursome with the playboy bunnies please.

she had two napkins one in her fake finger and one in her muff. come on guys its not hard. i cud put a napkin in my ass if i wanted and pull it out, it wouldnt be pleasent, as im aceptable to the runs quite often.

il be doing that soon :) just saving the pennies :)

he does exist doesnt he? :confused:

sorry to ruin the fun but she has a slip on finger that the red napkin goes inside everytime she pushes it into her hand its actually goin into the bottom of the fake finger then she puts on the finger and shakes her hands so u cant see it,,, haha i had one of those things before was fun :)
