Title: Good Day,Bad Day
Post by: Tim7 on 07 January 2010, 21:08:50
Good day: put my old icv back on, nice smooth tick over, replaced my thermostat, nice warm engine and heater. One happy bunny. :) :). Bad day sliped on the ice in the back garden went down like a sack of you know what, left arm stopped on a bucket I carried on moving, result my left shoulder was getting very freindly with my ear. Got back from hospital about an hour and a half ago having had my shoulder popped back in, worst be they cut up my new Spongebob tee shirt. :( :(

The bottom bolt was a bugger, someone before me had rounded the torx head off, i called my brother-in-law, a mobile mecanic, he ended up using a hammer and chisil to crack it and i found bolt in my box of bits to replace it.
