hello, I've gone and cursed myself again!!!!!!!! posted on a thread about bad rusting of the sills a few days ago and stupidly said 'mine ain't too bad' :o today i poked my finger through one of mi sills!!! :eek: thing is when i got this motor in November it had a...

don't like the sound of that! sounds expensive :eek: haven't had chance to inspectigate any further this weekend

nice one rev glad you finally got sorted - but i thought the T/A was something to do with traffic reports? :confused: least it works now! mine still ain't working, give up trying for now! :D

16 fingers lost, its got six n half yr old finger clearance, :D so its not the fan. have to strip it down again tomorrow see if i can spot anything if the winds died down so i don't loose the bonnet

might be able to put a chart together, fan clearance measured by age group of kids fingers! :eek: :D

now there's a idea raz-never thought of that!! :) might explain why it only dose it at certain revs but not all the time if you know what i mean. I'll give one of the kids on the street a quid for some football stickers to check for me! :D

a band saw cutting wood or electric plainer, sounds like a wood shop :D

i put liquid gasket seal on all the hose connections yesterday but made no difference, tried to find it by revving it with my head under the bonnet - someone else revving it with me underneath it but as always never dose it when you want it to! :rolleyes:

its not a - "friggs sake wot the f**cks up wi the shed now" sort of noise :eek: just want to know what it is, i'll do the inlet when i get a bit of time and see what happens :)

got any whistles or squeeks raz - my squeeks come back!! :confused:

sounds like you got unlucky and got one of the that just falls to bits quicker than usual, sorry fella:( my 98 R has rust but nothing like the scale you describe, whilst we're on the subject mine is starting to rust on the rear arch where you can see when the rear doors are open, is...

nah your not mad, i sold my 53 MGZS to get my 98 300. :D they wont be saying that when it buckets down with snow and you drive past them waving!! :D

theres a few rear light upgrades on flea-bay high level indecators n what not :)

the belly falling out sound just happened the once- thank fook!! :D :D will check all the connections at the weekend to find the screech, to dark after work- maybe thats the problem it was getting dark when i was putting it back together, may have a hose not quite seated right :confused:

forgot to mention raz, when you start it back up it might sound like ya bottom end has dropped out! :eek: apparently its quite normal its just what hasn't drained properly. :confused: didn't do it first time for me but second time i started it....... ooh brown trousers time...

just take it out and swish 5 quid of petrol through -leave to dry an she'll be good as new. before you do the egr spray plenty of wd40 or something similar on the 2 bolts every night for a week before- then when you get the hex spanner on it hope and pray to every god in the world it turns and...

know what you mean raz - more right foot more whistle - but not every time if that makes sence!! didnt take long, getting the fan couwl out the way and bottom hose was a bit of a pig. 5 quid of unleadded swished through then rinsed it out with the hose pipe- i couldnt belive how...

cheers boomer, i like the sound of the inlet gasket allot better than the sound of a new inter cooler!!!! ;)

just tie-wrap the cable out the way you wont need it, you mite want to flush out the inter cooler if the hoses are really blackened. just flushed mine today and has improved running -apart from a whistling that's started but i think (hope) its just running the left over cleaner through the turbo...

checked and re-checked, sounds like a woodshop saw!!!! :)
