  1. HAHA I'm not obsessed with it :D I havent cleaned it for over a week ( mind you I am feeling a bit funny :gag: ) Need to get the bucket and sponge out saturday morning befor going to wrocester tho. O well its all good. :grin:
  2. Well I saw it was loose and pushed it back in and was fine ( didnt even cross my mind there was something to hold it on) truned the egine on and it just popped out, not completly but enough to notice plus chucking out oil. Turned it off saw a screw slot and hunted for it and sorted it out.
  3. Well I think I might have found the real reason for this. Got a txt off my dad saying their was oil on the drive were I was parked. So I looked under the bonet and there was oil every were had a look round the engine bay and found this was very loose and the part that holds it on missing After looking round the engine bay I found it luckly and managed to fit it back on, filled her back up with oil. Its looks like its coming off the gear box as when you take it out you can see some cogs. Its situated just above and to the right of the oil filter. What a night, but all sorted now, might be worth takeing a crash course in mechanics :D
  4. Hey Thanks for that. I will have a good read of it all in a moment. Didnt have a problem with it today. O well Thanks

  8. Tryed to start my car this afternoon to come home and it wouldnt start, when it did It would die out again, putting my foot on the accelerator didnt do much either. Eventualy got it going but every time I put my foot down it didnt have any power, if I put it into nuteral and tryed to rev the engine nothing would happen. After the engine warmed up it worked fine. Just been out again in it and didnt have a singel probolem Had a look under the bonet and nothing was loose or out of the organary :cuckoo: :confused4: :shrug: Are first little lovers tiff :lol:
