Anyone From Coventry Feeling Helpfull?
Ok, I'm not scared of spanner work, god knows I've done enough to the Volvo over the last 6 months, but I look under the zeds bonnet, and I see spaghetti-pipes-and-wires, and to be fair, I've chickened out of doing the PCV's on my own. :headvswal Have any of you cov lads done the pcvs yourself? would you be willing to come round mine, and help me do em? :confused: I've got a huge garage, so weather is not an issue, I've got a crap load of tools, and my fridge is always well stocked with stella, but other flavours of beer will be bought, if needed.... :duffer: I'd really appreciate it, and my garage would be available to the wonderful helpful person, for any time they needed it, for work on their own cars, from then on.... :hyper: And the wife makes a mean cuppa, and s**t hot bacon sarnies.... Can't say fairer than that, can I?

hey del, your car looks spanking in the pics jay sent, and yeh all being well, I'll be up there in the old girl in the month or so... We'll set the streets of Falkirk alight that night, eh?!:dance::dance: I'll be at TRAX 09 at silverstone on the 6th of sept, but I might be taking the Volvo, as I'm more used to her... I'll be buying the kit sometime in October, with a bit of luck... oh yes, there will be an FMIC going in that gaping hole in the front, for sure, I agree, it'd look daft without one....;)

Is there a "how to..." on here for changing the PCV's? If you can give me link, you'd be saving me much head scratching... thanks in advance.... ps... well chuffed about the mot, she's sat for two an a half years, and shot throught the mot... good car.... *pat-pat-pat* well done car..... :D
