General Car Chat / Is it just me
« on: 28 March 2018, 01:13:02 »
I seem to be getting dazzled by the newer built cars just lately  ???

This video captured from my rear dashcam is a 17 reg Volvo.

   https://youtu.be/tpVyFSnWeNY

It`s late morning & even in the daytime it dazzled my eyes when I looked at it in the mirror.
Do other members notice this or is it time to get my minces tested  :-\

Omega General Help / what do you do
« on: 11 February 2018, 22:08:59 »
when installing the oil filter   ???
I oil the o-ring & then screw on the GM oil filter.

Talking to other ppl, some say they pre-fill the filter with oil & then screw it on.
One bloke even places strong magnets on the filter cartridge, good idea  :-\

Anyway we`re having this discussion at work, surrounded by my co-workers today & one of the girls  says something like; "when I serviced trucks we were taught not to pre-fill oil filters, but fuel filters we did pre-fill" well up to date she kept that one quiet  ;D

So what`s best practise  ???

General Car Chat / Looks fake to me
« on: 05 February 2018, 01:37:28 »
Why do I think it`s a fake video  ??? why else blank the dashcam date & time stamp 
A bit of clever editing & hey presto I`m innocent officer  ;D

SpaceX have annouced a launch date of February 6 at 1:30 pm EST for the demo flight  of their Falcon Heavy  :)

If like me, you`ve watched this company over the last few years perfecting the unique landing caopability of the first stage rocket; this next launch will land the first stage & both of it`s boosters.

The CEO Elon Musk has announced the dummy payload will be his Tesla sports car.
The final stage, with the tesla onboard; will power up to break free of earths gravity & the planned orbit around the sun will take it as far out as Mars  :y

They test fired the vehicle on the pad the other day & this thing is huge

General Discussion Area / Need a new hobby ?

I`ve watched several of these vids where they renovate diecast models.

We`ve all got the odd rattle can about & probably some cherished matchbox or corgi hidden away.  This bloke uses an air brush & probably makes it look easier then it is .
I might sacrifice renovate my old corgi Triumph 2000, when I can find the time  :y

Some of the older models suffer with broken or missing tyres, I need to do some research
