ooh get me with all me fancy bits n bobs... :p Fook, i just added up what you've spent on your motor and it's probably more than my range cost :eek: Seriously though, whatever floats your boat, if you've got money to throw at the car and it makes you feel good then why not. magnecor do have...

yup, seeing as i just got the elbow from the new burd i should have a few quid to spend an orl :D let me know if you wanna meet up/ lift etc ;)

maybe if you told everyone what engine/year etc it would help? Maybe your expansion tank/cap is split or leaking?

I fitted an adapter tee for a mechanical guage to my 3.9 a while ago and it went on ok, i guess the 3.5 must have a different oil pump housing as on mine the oil pressure switch was twisted slightly further forward and i had to move the radiator hose slightly to stop it rubbing on the adapter. i...

Not sure about this week, it's the newbury 4x4 jumble on sunday, maybe friday evening.

Shall i find somewhere new to get stuck so you can try some new lanes then kris? :D Kidding, lesson learnt, well after all the **** takin anyway ;) Cheers for letting me tag along friday, i enjoyed that, well apart from carpys constant eating :D

Are you for fookin real? :confused: If you can't be arsed to look for yourself what on earth makes you think others will share their time/knoweledge with you???? As Pikey said most people won't be willing to help you without knowing you're not a knob who'll rip up the lanes and ruin it for...

Hope you heal up quickly mate ;) Too much day time telly and your brain will rot! I'm not sure what the others are up to but i'm sure at least some of us would come out with a little notice. I'm ok most weekends really. We could either stay your way or do the fords near frensham (but i'm not...

Thanks Guy, at the moment yes definately, although i need to find the filler hole as that along with most of the range got a little full of mud on saturday before international rescue arrived...:o I'm assuming you were having a peaceful lie down in the garden when a towel rail became dislodged...

Off you go then daddy, and don't come back without a fruit shoot and some chocolate buttons :D Seriously though he loved it, he's been asking when we can go again but not go in that sticky mud :o

You're bloody right i did :o It wouldn't have felt right to go home all clean like :D

Well done with the pics chaps, some gooduns there :) I see what you mean about how much steam i'm pumping out! pure hydrocarbons :D going to see if i can sell the rangie to a special effects company :D

:D Where's the piccies :rolleyes: I haven't got any this time coz i left me camera at ome.. Top day out though chaps, farewell hippoboggle ;) Looking forward to all the welding on your disco to be! Me and red did a couple of cheeky lanes on the way back, there's no stopping him you know...

Haven't heard anything.. Cut his arm clean orf with an un liscensed chainsaw :D

Funnily enough we'd done some fords earlier in the day, one of which was about 40 yards across, halfway through i picked up too much speed and the bow wave came up over the bonnet and up through the heater and shot all up the inside of the screen, nipper says to me- daddy, you've turned big car...

I've been trying to hide as i'm so embarrased :o I guess until the next time someone does it i'm the new nelly!! :o:o I have no real defence for my actions.. I was going to take an easier route but changed my mind at the last minute to do a lane i hadn't done before.. I stopped at the first...

I've used the 3m filters to do 2 full 2k primer, base, clear coat paint jobs and found them to be very good, had the workshop so full i could hardly see (must remember to put the fan on!) and could still breathe clean tasting air ;)

there's not that many, the ones on the map are do-able in your hippo although there are a couple of fords near the loddon too if your wiling to risk your doors :D

Cheers for the tip Kev ;) but tried that, my abs pump always runs when i turn ignition on so i often wait til it's stopped before i turn the key, makes no odds. Thing is it always used to start as soon as i touched the key before the misfire came along.. When i'm feeling brave i'll investigte...

Yeh, looking more hopeful now, thanks for your knowledge and patience Kev! i'm sure there is still more to do, started it from cold tonight and it's still taking longer to fire than it really should, could well be injector related but i'm not touching them this week!
