did wonders for my 2.2 as well, can't begin to explain what a difference it made. I do mine every 3 months now which is just under ever 1k miles.
Now that the oil is coming out clean, that may be a little excessive.  Certainly won't do any harm (assuming you don't break anything whilst doing it ;D) :y

Think its actually closer to 1.5k miles depends what i do at weekends.

Its staying clear and clearer with every change, its been about 2 months since the last one, really need to invest in a new oil tray.
LOL, didn't you break yours months ago?

Do you do the other 2 Omegas as often  :-X

Father tunnies was done same day as mine, mother tunnies not get been attempted.

Both need doing again, along with anti-freeze, especialy mine, as its on 111k with the orginal HG.

Never done a paper oil filter before.
Virtually the same, unless some cowboy has overtightened it.

Do it asap, so you have a base to start from.

Might do it this weekend... you still wanna use my garage this weekend?

Also do you still wanna play with that headunit, or shall i pick it up?
Finished with Headunit - without the code, its no good to me.

Headunit works, single slot cd goes through the motions of playing a disc now.  It can also read a satnav disk, didn't have a gps unit handy to fully test.  CDC does not work, I think it needs a new vertical board in it to overcome CDC SAFE msg.


The other stuff, not much left of other headunit, so I'll keep for spares.  The other CID I can't get to go either.


Damn - Worth having a go at making it RGB?

Thanks for your help anyway, much appreciated!  :y

If only.  If it did, I'd bring the Wii to Newent.  Though it may be difficult on a 5" screen!

People drive so bloody slow  >:(.  Suspect they do it on purpose, just to annoy me.  Next I guess they will film me and go to the police ;D

All I ask is that on a clear dry day, people drive at a speed somewhere near the limit  >:(

Mrs TheBoy got in a bit of trouble overtaking some old duffer the other day, driving like it was a zimmer.  He obviously thought it was a statement about his penile size, and speeded up as she overtook.

She booted it to get passed, and gave him a 'wave' which obviously pissed him off, as he then started to chase her  :o

Nice guy.

She could do one of two things.

1) Drive to copshop, see if he follows her in there!
2) Kick him in the nadgers ;D

I was behind an old duffer going back from MK, constant 40mph all the way on large A roads... its 60 limit!

Kind of old duffer that does 40mph all the time   >:(
