Steams

thats whats happing to me mate, like you I tried a restart but still the same :wacko: Think i'll go and play Half Life 2 instead :sailor:

sounds like it..

odd, it's only doing here if I go to any other site it's fine..

Have you checked the AFM for damp? When mine got damp it was causing the car to vibrate. Just a thought.

is the site really slow tonight? It's taken bleedin ages to refresh :angry:

Don't know then mate, I guess you could try splitting the prop again and turn one end round then bolt it up again.

Did you change the front half of the prop to a manual one?

I was lucky, both the filler and drain plugs came out of my diff :chris:

How did you sort that in the end mate? Turn the car upside down :lol:

Think his legs would snap :lol:

sounds good! Maybe we should do a club trip...lol Biggest cat i've had so far is only 27lb, my mate has done a 71lb, both were UK fish in the UK.

think they are all the same but somebody will be along soon to confirm/deny this.

diff oil doesn't really need changing. Not sure on the gearbox, but if you have a look and smell you should be able to tell if it needs changing.

depends on what type of games you like to play. One tip though, unless it's on special offer, don't buy CoD MW2 from steam as you can get it a lot cheaper from amazon, play etc..

Tis a very nice carp, I love my fishing too but it's far to cold for me at the moment.

Steam is an online PC games distributer. go to http://store.steampowered.com/ for more info mate.

That is a work of art mate! stunning..

Cheers Jeff, that's helped a great deal.

Wow.

Jeff, Is it true that if you buy and have you're cambelt done at a nissan dealer and the belt then fails before the recommended mileage/time then nissan will pay for the engine repair?

Gorden Ramsey and Ric Stein plus many other top chefs say that you should throw away any oysters that don't open when you've cooked them, this is taken as fact by just about everyone. However according to QI this is not true and indeed closed oysters are fine. It's the ones that are open before you cook them that should be chucked. This "Myth" started when a cook wrote a book about seafood years ago. Chefs have since taken this as gospel and it has become fact.. The moral of this story is "just because something is repeated often enough, don't make it true" :sailor: Anyway, think I've got this sorted in my head now! Thanks for the explanations folks :thumbup1:. I don't doubt that Jimmer and co know what they are talking about, just wanted it explained rather than the usual "Don't do that you'll knacker the engine" quote. Starting from cold and warming the car isn't an issue in my zed as I don't drive it in the winter. But I think this thread will have helped a lot of people understand the issue of cold starting (including me) :thumbup:

Cheers, that helps me a bit. However, and I'm probably showing my ignorance of engines here, surely the revs being twice as high when you start from cold i.e. 1500 instead of 750 helps burn off the extra fuel :confused1:

You can quickly tell which PTU you've got just by looking at it. The s1 PTU has alloy cooling fins on it, the s2 doesn't.

I've heard this mentioned a few times, now I'm no expert but how does it damage the engine compared to getting in and driving it? When I start the car from cold the revs stay around 1500 until the engine is warm surely that's better than driving off from cold and putting a lot of strain on a cold engine? Please can somebody tell me WHAT damage is caused by doing this as it's making me think that its an urban myth??

very true, seems such a common problem that I bet some people think it's a factory standard :chris:
