pretty sure both of mine are pieces of wire now.

the semi ridgid line that goes from the intercooler to the turbo itself and goes over the top of the power steering pump. how is it remobved do i need to detach the hard metal line above itto acess to jubeliee on teh front of the turbo? and how is taht one removed, just by the single bolt i can see on the plenum and the jublie that is on the recirc part of the induction back into the turbo??? please help :D

thats the one.

some where there is a thread from jeff with a load of photos of what the comopany taht did mine did. i had one turbo perminatly engauged and the other perminently disengaed. and so many boost leaks i never hit boost in any event

what merc did you riop them off paul?

ok because i had a simular issue about 18 months ago.

personally i dont know mate might be worth a search. they leak, i can tell you that. tahst my job this week.

no worries did you get hold of phil the other day? i messaged him on djcc but got nothing back. havent seen huis zed around either and i normally see him on his way to work.

gash, was the comapnion or the service manual? ive got the service manual here on adisc in pdf format that your mor ethan welcome to take a copy of.

yup absoulte pants, mine has stopped working althoughter now.

could be an airlock or something silly. take the cap off run the engine and work the steering from lock to lock and top up as you go if required.

i used pro tyre last time just waltsed in. but they charge 30 per adjustment. did you find your book?

hollow point where did the engine come from? was it a supply and fit job from ebay? if so was the supplier based in the derby area

ah thats a fairly good idea. make life easier come mot time if said tester feels a little preoccupied with being picky

on teh subjct of mahgnectic sump plugs, did the amount of metal your accuimilated around it decrease over time?

did you get a light flash up saying hicas on teh left? check the fluid levels, did it making a sort of gurgle noise or just die?

ah tahst not too bad then, who set it up for you?im taking the car off the road this week to deal with that pesky powersteering leak of mine. dependant of how much taht ends up costing to fix and how long it takes i may well drop it this week aswel.

went to relocate my sidelights this evening. into the curb light section of the new crystal indicators, trouble is, i didnt find what i expected to with the fog light. so can i litteraly cut the two wires feedibng the side light off the fog lamp assembly and wire them up to a bulb holder, or does the fog light require more than the one wire going to it? assuming i can do it that way do the indicator bulb holders from the side repeaters fit in the hole, looks like it should? and does anyone have a pair with pigtails, they would like to donate. obvioulsy id pay the postage, i dont even need the actual lamp holder just the connetor block from the loom.

so any advice on the geometry? or am i just gonna have to suck it and see and get it all changed on a 4 wheel aligment jig.

no i was logging from the adddress bar then followed teh link from ebay after that to be double sure it was teh right paypal... still doesnt seem right.even if its genuine i really dont like the idea.

nope url looks fine, i even logged in from ebay to second check it. i cant even remove my card details etc from there site without filling it in.

how funny, me and my girlfreind went for a cruise upround that area over the weekend, you were not far from my neck of the woods. lol gonna be there a few times this week. wasnt me though

i knew you where upto something lol. i think you should put us to rest though and spill the beans how much it cost lol

just logged onto paypal which wont let me access anything apart from one screen which asks me to re enter my account details, card number account number etc etc. and any other option is disabled! anyone else ever seen this screen is it a scam? it damn well looks fishy to me.

i totally agree with you ian. its not until you live with a smoothed off lwb you realise how wrong it looks the rear looks so unbalanced unsporty and unfinished. looks fine on the squat shorty but it just looks wrong on a lwb. which is why i reverted to an 89 spec and it looks a million times better.
