Very funny,,,,,,,,,could not stop laughing

So there you are driving down the road and while you are passing the local Ford dealers, and you glance over to see the new galaxy with its price in big green numbers,,,,,,,,,i am sure you would do as I done,,,,,,,about turn and check it out, is this know as cheeky advertising,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, :lol:

The air pump is to help the cat to get up to correct temp, and only runs for a min or two, the only way it can effect the emissions is at cold start up, which I believe is not tested, just take it for a good blast down the road before you take it in for the mot.

power steering pipe runs in front of rad behind the lower grill and below a/c pipe, the oil is a clear hydraulic type oil, on a 1998 2.3

I always thought you had to tell them about alloys wether they were factory fit or not ;)

:D There is a glue from evo-stick call "sticks like sh*t" available at screwfix direct,,,,,,,,,,

belated birthday wishes to you nik, hope you enjoyed yourself,,,,,,,,, :D

As far as I am aware, the mk1 gal does not have an engine light, never seen it light up with ign on,,,,, you are right though, time its time the expert had a look,,,,,,,

Well its not the throttle body, took off, cleaned it, put back on, no change, but I did find no voltage at the cam sensor, could this cause bad idle

Its not easy,,,,,way at the rear of the engine,,,,,i was going to remove the air filter pipe and squirt loads of carb cleaner in it,,,,,,,might fix it,,,,I am hoping its only gummed up,,,,,,,,

Forgot to say take a portable dvd player (if you dont have screens and dvd fitted) the kids will enjoy something to watch and the wife will love you for it,,,, silence is golden,,,as they say :)

I was there last october, and it was great, when you come out of the calais ferry port go straight onto the motorway and follow the signs for paris, then the signs to disney, IIRC the tolls were about 16.50 euros to paris and about 4 euros to disney, allow about 4 to 5 hrs to disney from the ferry port, and keep to the speed limits, the french police dont like speeders On the big rides they automaticly take your photo, and if you wish you can purchase them outside of the rides, started at 15 euros 2 to 3 days is plenty to see everything, spend a day in paris up the effiel tower, superb,,,,,,,, we had a picnic on the 2nd level, great have fun and enjoy yourself, :) P.S. if you go on the aerosmith ride (adults only lol) its dark, you cant see were you are going upside down, loop the loop,,,,,,,,,, great stuff

No, so I ran out and done it, yes 12.1v

hi guys, i had the classic ISV fault, took it off and gave it a clean, no change, so I took the plunge and bought a new one

Thats a good price,,,,,5l oil and filter usually cost me about

Could be a faulty needle,,,,,,,mine goes to the O on norm at normal running and goes up to the M when in traffic then the fans come on and it goes back to the O,,,,,,,would not do any harm to change the temp sensor,,,

Sorry guys I am going to be the ODD one here,,,,,,every body has pointed to a battery problem,,,,,,,sounds like a lazy starter motor,,,,get it serviced/reconditioned or replace the starter motor

hi guys, a little update for you, I got 3 slabs of 6ftx12"x"2 of pitch pine and a little off-cut piece, (all for free, with the option for loads more) the boss believes this wood is over 250 years old, and when you smell the end grain of the off-cut, WOWW it still smells like the day it was first chopped down,,,,,seems a waste to put it on my boat lol,,,,,,,
