    Sorry just to be clear. Either of these will work without aircon?

    Been waiting to hear you say that mate.They need "tuning". Aftermarket ecu will give you the flexibility that you need.Rolling road time will still be beneficial but I don't think you can beat road tuning for real driveability.

    so replacing both of them would definately make the pedal a lot softer? I don't know. You asked about what components were used to pump the pedal to and thro. If you have changed all the other components recently,i.e clucth and pressure plate then you would have to think that maybe then it is a hydraulic issue. Do they look ok visually? No leaking fluid?

    the master/slave clutch cylinders do the real work once you actuate them with your left foot.

    I bought my Vw driveshaft spline key from my local auto factor. I think they are pretty common. And yes irwins eat rounded allen bolts for breakfast.
  7. dirtytorque
    allen keys are no good on engines imo .You need a proper spline socket/bit set. That way you will hardly ever need to use irwins. GoOd to have them as backup mind. You'll want the proper driveshaft spline bit too.Should never really strip a driveshaft bolt using the proper tool.

    If you don't use it that much just hold off let the credit card breathe a bit and save a bit of money. Easy for me to say but i have just paid mine off and i am loathed to put any car modification parts on it again.Lloyds tsb make enough money from me as it is thanks very much. :censored: Even if its just 200-300 pounds you save thats £300 less on the C card. The thing of it is you'll want to build a strong bottom end.

    once tensioner is loose ,the alternator is off and all the screws are out that hold the charger to its bracket,just rock it and pull at the same time until it comes out. You do not need to remove the charger bracket nor do you need to take the pulley off. hth.

    good luck with the MOT. You can really see all the time and work in that engine bay now. Good things to those that wait as they say.

    cool. :) look forward to watching another build. :)
  13. dirtytorque
    You have someone lined up to buy?
  14. dirtytorque
    Good news on the maiden voyage. Very restrained. :)
  15. dirtytorque
    yup it could get very random.

    maybe they are just fouled because of over fueling.So less of a spark plug issue,more of a fueling issue.....

    Most G60's are almost 20yr old now :wink: At least Jabba are sorting it out for him. Despite all the horror stories spread around, I've always had excelent service from them. It might even be my old engine getting fitted 8) The extra will always find any short comings in an engine with the extra heat,forces not to mention enthusiasm going through it. :)

    Almost tempted but I know i wouldn't stick to the script .... ah well..

    very easy.the hook on the cable attaches to an eye to the rear and left a bit of the clocks.

    Too good to be true? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TURBO-KIT-FOR-ALL ... 0354313853

    sorry,I have to ask... dumping fuel everywhere? Just sounds like some sort of split hose or one of the hard lines.. It's not great but shouldn't be too hard to fix? Is it more too it than that mate?
  22. dirtytorque
    :) That is a problem isn't it.
  23. dirtytorque
    I guess the simplist answer is that their car is optimized for low fuel running. Maybe they think that with the new regs,overtaking will be differcult and thus it's all about being at the front to start with.
  24. dirtytorque
    after qualifying are the teams only allowed to re-fuel? I.e no spanner work. Thinking about this redbul ride hight thing. With race fuel on board hamiltons car was quicker than Mark webbers. In qualifing there was a huge difference in speed in favour of the redbull in relation to the mclarens. :shrug:
  25. dirtytorque
    Alonso was quicker,alot quicker but I don't think massa should let him pass.Two races in let them race fair and square. Yup roll on next week. :D Oh and congrats to button a very intelligent brave race. He could of looked quite the fool but he took the gamble.All the races aren't going to be like this but if we get a couple more like this then i'll be happy.
