    am guessing you mean raddo_tom as even though its probably the same guy, the other account hasnt been used since 2007.

    seeing as he hasnt logged in since jan 9th (so not received messages i guess) i would think he's either been on holiday or he's just let stuff get on top of him. from what I've seen on the forum its very rare that people just out and out con other people by not sending stuff they're meant to, they just get into a bit of a mess and then take a while to sort themselves out.

    i'm not taking away from the fact that you should be getting replies and its not an acceptable way to do stuff but if you can be patient a bit longer then hopefully it will sort itself out.

    shout again if you're still getting nowhere though

     

    Thanks,

     

    I do mean raddo_tom, and I totally understand that sometimes delays are unavoidable. I also know there are rarely people out to con on this forum, though it has happened to me once.

     

    I was just hoping this post might spur a delivery or get a friend to remind him.

    (by my term 'a kicking', please read: ' a gentle nudge / reminder') :D

     

    Will let you know if and when anything happens.

     

    Thanks again,

    rado_tom

     

    I paid for a 16v clockset and an early heater panel back on 1st Dec!!!

     

    He made various excuses for not posting yet, been busy with christmas etc. Which i can totally understand and was very accepting of.

     

    It is now 24th Jan and he is no longer responding to messages or making excuses.

     

    Does anyone have any contact details for him or could give him a kicking for me?

     

    Cheers,

    I found a little penetrating spray and a little time wiggling helped remove the injectors.

     

    Once removed from the manifold they're dead easy to change with the help of 2 spanners. To avoid damaging the hardlines make sure you only separate the spanners by a small angle and then in one hand slowly squeeze the spanners together until it 'gives' and you can unscrew the injector.

     

    They are a bugger to get back in with new 'o' rings, as above, lubricate and push back into place with a flat headed screw driver.

     

    Putting the little metal clips back is also a b**ch as you'll drop them in the bay and spend ages trying to find them!

     

    You'll be wanting new injectors before the remap to get the best out of it and the car will also idle and run smoother.

     

    I always thought that C's were meant to run on super from factory? Thats what it says inside my fuel cap anyway. If you are going to get a re map at DG i'd fill it with super and keep doing so. Super will allow dave to advance the timing as much as possible without it pinking. You will then however have to use super all the time or it will pink. Whatever you do, don't fill it with BP 102 for the remap as it will always want that from then on and its production is soon stopping.

    Mine came today! Thank you boys, after having all my trains cancelled :bad-words: and a LONG walk home you gave me the warm fuzzy feeling that was very much needed!

     

    All the best, and despite the distance....... i'm sure i'll see you soon.

     

    Merry Christmas

     

    P.S. Is the long awaited RR up and running yet?
