I'm sure this one had white steel's. Looked low too but it was about 10pm, maybe later so pitch black and couldnt see the condition really. Where abouts in town do you go? Bigg Market with all the other radji's?!  I should buy it back off you now that it's (almost) finished and put my engine in it.  ________________________________________ mechanical_repairs wrote: i feel like giving her a good dry bumming session. |

don't take this the wrong way but its about time to flog it or go down the PAM approach, with the dosh you've bunged at it you could have paid someone who knew exactly what they were doing to sort it. this is the HG gone and won't be a coolant airlock that wouldn't pressurise the system. These lessons have been learned over a fair amount of car ownership |

Guess i'll be slumming it in the Laguna for a while yet. Xmas is going to nail me to the wall so shouldnt be thinking about buying cars tbh. I'll give you a shout next time i'm headed to town and grab a beer and an ogle with you. ________________________________________ mechanical_repairs wrote: i feel like giving her a good dry bumming session. |

had my car up my mates garage today got alot done stood talking and didnt get anything done to the car except weigh it. weighed in at 900kg on the dot  still got the fiberglass bonnet to fit when it finaly turns up along with the rallye aux belt kit so should be able to shead more weight there.as for the engine it looks like i am going to have to remove the head and get it checked to see if its warped and have it pressure tested. hope its ok or i will be in need of a new head yet again ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
