General Discussion Area / Ebay, it's never easy
« on: 05 March 2014, 19:07:55 »
I seem to attract the odd ones every time, this one is a guy from Kuala Lumpa wanting a BMW E21 dashboard posting to him 
He's been harassing me for weeks and wants a price to send it him there.....you can imagine the postage cost which may end up with him stitching me up through a paypal complaint. Would you bother?

Omega General Help / G/box sump sealant
« on: 04 March 2014, 12:04:39 »
I need to change a 2-3 solenoid and am forced to go down the cheapskate route of either reusing the existing gasket or just using silicone to seal it. I have used Holts instant gasket before without issue but have a tube of the super duper grey rocker cover gasket silicone in my tool box and wondered if it is up to the job?

Went to start it this morning and it nearly caught then made a fluffy type noise, following cranking sounded very fast and certainly not normal at all, compression gone???. AA on route to see what the score is

General Discussion Area / I want my own scrapyard
« on: 19 February 2014, 19:07:39 »
Been having a really rough ride in work and at the same time been breaking a few cars at home, made some decent cash just selling bits then getting the shells picked up so a bit of a dream would be my own yard ,being my own boss etc. Well smack my arse with a kipper there is a 6000sq ft, fully licensed yard with offices and storage come up for rent near me for £200 a week. I can't afford the start up sadly but I would have thought it would be more expensive than that to rent.

General Discussion Area / Deactivated ordnance legality?
« on: 28 January 2014, 18:04:54 »
Can I legally posses an empty pineapple style hand grenade?? not very clear on the web? Good reason for asking as I want to take it into my daughters school ( obviously asking them if it's ok first ) for her as part of her WW2 project. Pretty sure I am fine owning it but transporting it might be a different issue
Probably one of OOf's stranger questions...
