As per title, looking at same venue (The Crown - Ardleigh Interchange) 8). Easter weekend either Saturday or Sunday. Any preference to which day - please make it known. As usual all parties welcome. :y
Best regards

You pick the day... Normally when you pick a date we get good weather :y :y
Have you popped in to make sure they don't mind?
Obviously we will try to be there, although I might be in the van ::)
-
We'll do our best to make it, whichever day you choose JCB. All being well, I should have my Omega back from the 'shop by then as well! :y
-
I will try to pop in for a pint if Im not working. :y

Saturday 7th April... Now I have a date I'll try no pop in, although not really been there at the appropriate times lately ::)

Sat. 7th will be fine for me also.

Having said that, not 100% sure we'll both be able to make it ::) We have people staying with us so it may be tricky... We won't know until nearer the time ;)
I'm sure I'll be able to pop in though :y
-
Did somebody mention Beer! :y

72 hours a week? bloody part-timer ;) ;D

do we have a postcode etc not being a local??.. :y
-
For reference postcode is co77qr. ;)
-
It's just off the A120/A12 junction on the north side of Colchester. It's a slightly confusing island as it's an immediate left turn off the slip road onto the A120, and if you miss it then it's a fair way before you can turn around on the A120.
On the island itself there are 4 main turn offs, A12 north (Ipswich), A120 east, Colchester south, A12 west (London). Take the A120 keeping tight into the left and the left turn, then follow the road to the T-junction and turn right, the carpark is on the right.
-
Well, its endeed up that I cant wangle an hour or two so I wont be there as I had hoped. It would have been nice to put some faces to names. Ah well, wait for the next one..... keith B :(
-
Unfortunatley i can't make it either :'(
15,000 god-botherers on there easter hallelujah at excel.......not my thing, but it's a 5 day job, and i have to do either all or nothing, can't afford to turn it down
Hope for the next one
Sorry all
-
I'm hoping to put in an appearance but I doubt my Omega will be there because I need to be in the van and the Omega isn't MOT'd ;)
-
Heck...!
-
Had hoped to make this one, but I have a more imprtant appointment in Oxford just after lunch, so it just won't work out this time.
So, someone take a camera!
-
Not sure how many of us will be there... I'm not even sure if I'll be there ::)
But I'm sure it'll be fun :y
-
was hoping to make it, but now will have to be bailing out daughter from her own house move horrors in Gloucester,... mostly it's about being the bank of mum and dad , weighing in towards her £1400 deposit and rent in advance..... but there's also the stuff to move..... in the omega..... and trailer....
hope it's not raining....
-
Heck...!

He's become a cripple and has to accept he's not as "able" as he used to be ::)

Damn it ! I wish I'd have checked here first, I'd just picked up my new Omega from the other side of Ipswich on Saturday - took nearly 3 hours to get home as it kept cutting out on me as I was driving along. I actually broke down right next to the Crown - if I'd known you guys were there I would have popped in for some emotional support!

Cranksensor? Paperclip it, see if there is a lurking 19
-
Yep, that was my first thought - both the MAF and the ICV have been changed recently and it idles very smoothly and drives ok, no jerkiness, no coughing and the revs stay even. It will just cut out suddenly when the ECU/immobliser light comes on and the power dies. Leave it to cool for 10 minutes and it'll start up again. Does anyone know what the voltage across the crank sensor is, so I can check first rather than just replace it blind.

Do paperclip test - see Maintenece Guides for code reading.

Black saloon? Attended by the AA? I nearly came over to have a chat when I drove past saying "I bet it's the Crank Sensor" to a slightly wobbly JCB :-X ::)
