boost monkey 0 Posted April 18, 2011 Amazing! When I went on a trip with some mates to Africa, we had to fix the exhaust hanger of a VW combi with plastic zip ties. Luckily it was the backbox so the zip ties gaves us 15mins of good motoring before melting through :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ralphead 0 Posted April 25, 2011 The 50 I got to do up when I was 15 had a home made head gasket. Now I've made plenty of gaskets myself, preferably with proper gasket paper but corn flake packet'll do at a push. This though was a coke tin with the ends ripped off, then flattened out and rammed onto the studs coming out the barrel till they tore ragged holes in it. The hole for the bore was off by half and inch and all out of shape. The best bit was that being an MZ it never had a head gasket at all, muppets.
