Put 2 rear tyres on , handles even better now  :)
Makes a difference, although I like my cars quite 'pointy'
???Pointy . :-\
Organic lump in seat turns big round thing, car darts off that way.  Omega normally tends to understeer slightly

Needed to relieve some stress, took an angle grinder to one of Silver Bullet's doors.   Ahhhh, that's better ;D
More stress relief this evening...  ...getting seriously low on metal cutting discs now ::)
stress...? Doesn't exist! ;D
Is an adjective for a weak character ;D ;D As Chris states "doesn`t exist". It`s just an inability to cope with pressure :P ;D ;D
...and so start kicking cars etc  :o ::) ;D
No, no, no gayboy...  ...thats teaching the car a lession, Basil Fawlty style ;)
sorry, that's Gay. Just is! As expected from A Groomer of Brackley.  :P
Sometimes, inanimate objects need teaching a lesson.......

Took the headlights and front grille off, both front seats out and much associated wiring, and failed to get the back of the back seat out. Of the Jag, obviously

How much wiring do you need for two electric seats? In a Jag, a lot, apparently:


One control box per seat, plus another section of loom going straight from body loom to seat.. how many wires!?

Jimbob

Suspension check on big blue due to a light clunking noise..

steering idler ordered.
may want poly wishbone bushes too.

Petes just done the cam chain / balancer chain kit. Just dropped it off now to have the o/s/f wheel bearing hub replaced.

Omega_Dan

Wheel bearing done along with tracking and a puncture repair!!!! I  always seem to get a puncture on the same tyre ;D

Finally got around to replacing my holy scuttle panel with the one off my old mig, thanks to the Twig. Removed P/S in the process, didn't make a single beep......took it apart with a hacksaw and discovered why....think I got my timing just right.

Disposed of in an environmentally-aware fashion........ ::) ::)

Trouble strikes in series of three's, but when working on the car, the next job after a series of three is not the fourth job -- it's the start of a brand new series of three

Pair of wishbones, pair of donuts and fiddlle with multi rams on Danny's car. Swap wheels front to back and Oil and filter change on Lazys car. Oil and filter change on mine, plus fiddle with loosening top shock mounts, made no odds to stiff steering.

Pooped I am. Thanks to Paul for his help and LPG/code reading. :y
