Burst Hose - Needs Identified - Can anyone help?
double-6s replied to Bojmobile's topic in Engine Bay
I can't really see very well, but it kinda looks like something has melted on the exhaust manifold? I am blind though, so maybe wait for someone else to comment :) -
I can offer something constructive for once!!!! :) Get in touch with local Housing Associations and ask them mate. They quite often rent out garages at reasonable rates as they're not all used by residents. Whereabouts in saaarf londinium are you? I'll have a word with a couple of my clients on monday if ya like? Is it short or long term you're after?

That engine's looking nice and tasty mate - I nearly made this vr block into a coffee table it was so nice! :)
-
You made the right decision dude - it sucks down here really :) And yeah, VRs aren't the cheapest cars around! I'm experimenting now to see which is more expensive to run - VR rado or 3.2 litre Alfa! :)

Exactly. A judder/pulsing sensation should be felt. And don't worry - you'll live! :) I'll test it if ya like?! I'm a very careful driver you know :) Ah I would let you mate, but I'm at the other end of the country. :) By the way, can anyone tell me why I cant get the search facility to work for "ABS"??? You don't ever wanna let me drive your car bud :)

Seriously, a quick braking manouver from any kind of speed will easily show up if it's working mate. Don't be shy now! :)

Easy one this..... Drive really fast Slam the anchors on Does it skid or not? Sorted :)
-
Nicely done mate :) I'm over next weekend if you need any little bits bringing over? Only going as far as Dam though as we're flying.

Whats a ball park figure to get an engine bored out?

Think it's only about 150 quid to get it rebored mate. Then a fair bit more for everything else you'll have to do! -
Unlucky mate :( Don't worry about running it with the bypass - I did the whole of last winter with mine bypassed. CHILLY! :(
-
Who cares about the shape!! :)

9.3 litres and 2200bhp!! :)

Mate i invented cool! :)

When youre in a job like mine you NEED to be bi-lingual in order to keep up good foreign relations with the foreign laides 8) Also, as I was in Madrid last month, I thought I'd welcome him properly. You're only jealous William if you'd tried harder at school you too could be as cool as me :lol: 8)[/quote:3e16c] Your job has nothing to do with being bi-sexual mate ;) I have 10 o levels, 2 a levels, 2 city & guilds qualies and a batchelor of science degree ya cheeky monkey :)

Now that just proves you're gay Stanley! :) Are you wearing a bright red, frilly-fronted silk dancing shirt? :)

Well assuming spacers will have the same affect as increased ET/offset, in my experience you'll loose a touch of agility, but gain some stability in the corners.
-
Yeah the one on that engine you bought from the REALLY COOL bloke is a bit ropey too mate. Powder coating is the way forward i reckon.
-
Hello and welcome! Your red corrado is gorgeous. Very nice :)
-
'bodywork not perfect and engine fine' is dealer code for absolute piece of sh*te :)
-
Dude! Bummer :(
-
Looking good mate :)
-
Not that you're biased Will? Maybe you should move out of "God's Waiting Room" if you don't like old people? ;) Unfortunately it's a bit more complicated than that mate. I can't afford to go back to hove where I lived previously, as the ex-wife cleaned me out money wise :(
-
To be honest I think being 158 years old and only 4 feet tall (old gits around here) has more of a detrimental effect on driving than reading a map/smoking a fag/etc.

I'm sure two different people just mentioned me in the 'good seller thread'!! I thought I was a nightmare seller! Cheers guys :)
