  1. To add, if your camping book main camping and it will be in there :)
  2. New pump on, steering works fine when the car is revved but is heavy when it's on idle, the car is idling a bit poor ATM so I'm hoping it's just that..
  3. Give it a good service with plugs etc and you'll be laughing! :)
  4. So we have Vag hag Mic Lilfuzzer Massbad +2 Sexybourbon Harrier
  5. Nope you don't need to be a member, it's probably worth finding out who lives close by you and arranging with them with regards to getting there, your car will be accepted on the vwf page and you need to confirm and then buy your tickets. Next step decide if your camping, get there, and get some drink down you and have a great weekend!
  6. I know, I'm a bit upset aswell but it's just the way it's fallen! The beetle display was only 56 cars last year and we have had 80 confirmed afaik so it just wouldn't be big enough with the other bits :(

  8. Sounds good, I'll get a couple of phone numbers from people to sort something closer to the time :) I'll need someone to help me arrange the cars in the location, I don't know if I have mentioned it but due to the amount we have got registered (double what there was last year) we have relocated the display to the left hand side of the drive as people walk in through the main gates, where cars for sale used to be. we are having some signs made up to jazz up the area aswell :)
  9. Tbh it's only the pulley that was powdercoated, the rack and pump and pipes were all brand new and hand painted, I've drained all the fluid out that I can and have installed the new pump, cleaned out the inside of the pulley and it sits a lot more freely on the pump so I'm hoping its problem solved. I span the pump by hand and hopefully it will be sorted! If not ill flush again and again to try and clear it all! Thanks for the advice :)
  10. So I can judge how much space I need to save for everyone I could do with a rough idea on how many people are camping! I could also do with a willing participant who could just keep an eye out and make sure it's Corrado-ers that are coming into the camping, or helping if someone gets lost, I'll give people my number if needs be but it might just help if there is someone who is gonna turn up Friday who could watch over it! I think VAG-HAG mentioned he would be up for it!
  11. Balls I forgot to do this! I'll speak to them today! Apologies
  12. Car looks great mate :) really like the spoiler
  13. You must of got our sun! It's been dreadful in un-sunny Scarborough
  14. Give me your postcode and I'll get a price :)
  15. And was changing everything as I went along
  16. Rebuilding the car pretty much,
  17. No, It's heavy steering, take off the high pressure hose and no fluid comes through either so it's definatly the pump
  18. I'll have a look when I go to the car and I'll be in touch :)
  19. For a 1994 VR6 Anyone have the above. would need them posting. Cheers
  20. Story goes Fitted brand new pump. Filled up with fluid some fluid went through filled it up as much as I thought it needed. Couldn't get the steering to bleed. Took it to the garage who diagnosed a duff pump. Sent them a new one, fitted it they said it work fine for a minute and then went heavy again, suspected another pump. I said I would change it this time and took it away. Now I'm stuck, why would the car chew through 2 pumps when they are pretty much indestructible! I've got another new pump from work but am a bit dubious about fitting it incase it just shafts it again, I did wonder if I had fitted the pulley the correct way but it seems all is fine there. I've stripped the pumps that it's shafted and they both look like the impellar has been forced into the back part of the housing. The pulley has been powdercoated and so has the mounting bracket. Anyone think this could be the problem? I just wanted to check before I fit another pump and it potentially does the same. Ps before anyone says there is grit in there this is the old one I have taken off. I stripped it on the floor so that's where the grit has come from
  21. Those wheels do look good Dave! Can't believe they fit so well! Bargain adapters eh!
  22. Will be there with teh VWFestival lot! No corrado tho as it hasnt gone to plan :(
  23. Windscreen in, dropped off at garage and they now have a clutch pedal and they have moved it!
  24. Clutch bled, possible brakes and steering tomorrow. Then who knows
