Looks like you're both having fun Very Happy

It's great to have a toy that you don't need to rely on for work on Monday. Darren

Bonjour dudes , I basically only fit britpart to the pit machine , and to be honest it’s all been ok , i’ve had to replace the top hose cos it was mucky , the Brit part one is very flat on the main bend , i’ll give it a go at the next pit play , if it upsets the works , i’ll get a pretty blue one

Filled her up with this stuff , then went for a long ride to heat her up , she sits at 89.9 degrees all day long below 45mph , above 45 she slowly starts to heat up , got to 93 degrees when doing over 50 . Thank god it’s got silly tyres on to keep it slow , suppose I should pull the head in case the gasket is failing , or stay under 45 which is easier

so today , the thing came out for a spin , and it went like this , she starts on the button in the garage, but when its time to leave , it just clicks from the solenoid. hmmmmmmmmmm . anyways , a few swear words and we away , so shes gotta new injector harness , air and diesel filter and a bottle of diesel booster from halfords slung in to , do a 15 mile plod to esso and fill her up with premium diesel at 1.49 a litre , i then try to leave and click , click , click. some more swearing and she starts , a quick blast to work and i go underneath , clean the chassis earth and solenoid connections , and hooray , she works every time , afterwork , i drive to jsf norwich to get some magnetec for me engine , cos its not been changed in over a year , on the way there , the indicators pack up , so with some wire wiggling , they work once more , so with magnetec on board , we head head out for some high speed flat out runs ( ha ha ha ) long story shortened , shes now so smooth , up to 60 shes now a million percent better , at 70 the unbalanced muds are rubbish anyway , so several miles covered between 40 -55mph , temps are good , shes smooth , got power too , adjusted boost to give 226kpa , yep , really pleased , will let her cool down and then change the oil , bring on the pit

Whilst investigating a ticking noise , I have found that the exhaust flexi bit under turbo is split and i’ve got a bust stud , so i’ll pull it apart , get some uprated studs , find somewhere to skim my manifold , get a new down pipe and put it all back together again , oh the joys

The broken stud was so easy to get out , the next one above which was also bust , is being very naughty indeed
