Big thanks....
« on: 20 February 2010, 17:03:59 »
going out to RobseyMV6 for sorting my c/c gaskets, plugs and aux belt pully today. Top fellah!

Plenty of oil in the o/s plug wells, and the plugs themselves had seen better days, probably in Noah's outboard.

I thought the car ran well before but the drive home was a revelation. SMoooooooth idling, strong(er) pickup, even the gear changes seemed smoother especially on kick-down....errr which I only tested a couple of times, honest ossifer! ;D

Here's hoping for improved fuel economy too - if only I can lay off that right pedal a bit!

Cheers again Robsey.... :y

Now, what's next on the list? Mmmmm..
New discs/pads all round
Rear shocks
atf & filter change
oil & filter change
battery (I only just noticed today that the one in there is a 65Ah, recent threads on here suggest it should be an 85Ah, plus it looks a bit old and ropey - a bit like me! :D )

Hmph! Looks like the 7 day m/bike tour to Austria in June might have to be cancelled.... :'(

It's a 70AH one in the 3.2's, if you get an 85AH one the jacket doesn't fit around it.

There is plenty of confusion though because the Tradeclub website states it's an 85AH one.....  ::)
