Today I have been...
« on: 11 October 2008, 18:48:53 »
...a bit lazy  :-[

But did manage to clean out tractor's intercooler, and replace its exhaust - hadn't realised quite how bad it had become.  Also managed a tech2 session on a new member's car, took a bit longer than planned - Martin Imber, I suspect you may have a fob repair coming your way shortly ;D

Then I have dropped the Bose shelf again in MV6 to try to diagnose a couple of issues with the ncdr1500 setup.  I hope I haven't smoked the telematics unit ::)

Talking of which..

Got mine, thanks TB :y.

Is it silent, or should I continue to find out what's wrong with my PC? So far tried Media Player, Real Player and Divx, all silent.

TIA, Jim

Mine was the same but worked fine on a home DVD player.

Try something like Power DVD on your PC :y

Found that Eibach springs are slightly lower than standard snapped springs - very little in it but similar ground clearance now to my Carlton.

TIme to have an accident with cement.

Also found that lowered stiffened Omegas do not roll on roundabouts 8-)

And no complaints about sick feelings

Thought it was about time I tech2'd the tractor as well, seeing as I do everyone else's, and never my own cars ;D

Was going to do MV6, but got sidetracked into something else more interesting ::)

I played in the swamp.  Got a couple inch deep layer of rusty nuts and bolts in the bottom of a bucket now.  Next step is to remove the swamp.  ::) :)
