Yes, no problem. 

[Kevin Wood]

When you say Winchester services do you mean on the M3?

If so, I'd like to meet you a bit further en-route if possible. Otherwise, I've got to go all the way to Basingscrote and back and miss out half the nice twisty roads.

I'm just thinking.. hopefully we'll have people coming from all directions so a meeting point off the motorway would be better so that you can arrive there from all directions. In some cases folk will have to take quite a detour to get to a motorway services, if you follow?

Having said that, I don't have anywhere in mind.. Halfrauds car park at Winnall trading estate, maybe? Just off all the major roads in the area, and most people know it..

Hi there, im new to this forum, so please dont bite. Erm, daft question, can you tell me exactly what a "meet" entails as i would like to come along, meet some new people, miggys ect ect.

Hi there, im new to this forum, so please dont bite. Erm, daft question, can you tell me exactly what a "meet" entails as i would like to come along, meet some new people, miggys ect ect.

Welcome to the Forum.

Meets vary.. Sometimes just a social with a bit of tinkering for those who have the odd problem to fix. Others, we get together and it's all hands to the deck doing a large amount of major work on a lot of cars. We also have a couple of camping meets during the course of the year where we can normally be found round a barbecue with a beer or two.

I suspect this meet will fall into the "Social + Tinkering" category. Come along, by all means. The more the merrier.

[grain.ben]

Thankyou for that, you can count me in, definatly!

[Elite_L0ver]

Thankyou for that, you can count me in, definatly!

Yeah it will be a social and tinkering one look forward to seeing you there so we are looking good with a good turn out whoop 

[grain.ben]

Also, I can bring some tools, ect ect, if need be? 

[Elite_L0ver]

cool 

[X3 OXE]

Looking forward to this, gonna be a good turnout!

[RobseyMV6]

Might pop along, but can't pass 4.5 rev at moment as the supercharger is clearing the fuel line,  waiting for big fuel pump to be fitted 

[Radar]

Would like to attend but can't make it this time - have a good one

[lee4206]

If all goes well with work hopefully I'll be there. 
Is there any tools or equipment anyone wants me to bring. I have almost everything you would need to work on an omega inc locking kit, large torque wrench for wheel bearings, camber gauge etc. 
Let me know and I'll see what I can do

Lee

[VX1]

You say you have camber gauges? could you bring them with you if possible? Also would like to let you all know that there will be approx 7 of us coming from the oon side so will be good see see you all there.

[lee4206]

When I said camber gauge its only a magnetic one that goes on the disc ect. I was thinking more along the line of using it to replicate camber settings if anyone done shocks or lower arms ect. 

[VX1]

ah right, well my front camber is out along with the rear but the front needs doing so we will see.

[lee4206]

ah right, well my front camber is out along with the rear but the front needs doing so we will see.

We use it on the tracking gauges at work so I suppose if we could sort out a metal plate / length of steel that will sit across the face of the wheel it could be used to get the camber pretty close.

I can get one of those the proper laser one if that helps

Ah excellent omegalover cheers 

That's fine any time hope someone can help with my heater problem as its decided to stop working 

[VX1]

[Elite_L0ver]

Stop working? as in heater blower or general heat?

Don't seem to be getting heat in the car iv just been out for a hour letting it idle whilst trying to "burp" coolant system keeping water topped up and the car is NOT overheating but there is a luke warm air then got hotter as temprature rises in going to let it cool again to cold and see what happens have you any tips

[VX1]

do you have climate control or standard heating controls?
Also have you or anyone else had the plenum off recently or had the vac pipes removed and replaced?

[Elite_L0ver]

Yeah but after heating went in the car I checked all pipes  were connected whhats difference between the 2 

[VX1]

If they have been fitted incorrectly then you won't get any heat or little heat into the cabin, which sounds like whats happened. There is a how 2 on here somewhere to show how they go on.
Here we go look here this will show you the correct fitting for the vac pipes
