Maybe. I can have a pokey round and see if I can find anything. I can replace them all with polybushes like all the cool kids do.
Just weird that it is only the front left outside band, unless the camber is out, but I can only assume that'd be a bent axle.
thinking about getting an aircon manifold gauge set and vac pump so i can sort my car myself.. anybody done this? theres plenty of options available on ebay/amazon etc all looking pretty much the same.
is it a daft idea? i'll need to refresh any oil thats left in the system, check for leaks and get all the moisture out before filling

Goes on Amazon to look for the book 'Knitting with electric spaghetti' for @kermit_rr
It looks i have a black box emulator jobby for post cat o2 sensors. I'm guessing that's not oem and related to the fact my cats are.. ahem... hollow

They will be if running on lpg. I was speaking to a guy who buys scrap cars and he told me that he checks cats by hitting them with a hammer and if they sound empty the price he gives goes down, usually those that have been running on lpg are empty as they run so much hotter and burn the insides out.
The wires go into the old lpg ecu from the black box
will i ever get running again!? The engine bay looks like it's had a wire vomit

Ordered few bits.
- Front flexi so I can fit the 2nd calliper,
- a gnk tvc100010 for the rear of the prop. Il only use gnk or Spicers if money was no object. Not sure it’s bad but looks it after standing in garden.
- Quality Samco 3mm vacuum tube. It’s for the MAP (+1 point @Tenebreaux ) as I’m fed up of using shyte spill, it’s not even carrying fluid
But! Shyte spill pipe is about £8 for 2metres, this silicone tubing is only £10.15 for 3 metres so probably best use this for spills too? I’m biased towards thinking it's no good for fuel lines but how is that any different from the crap spill line produced these days?!?
except cheaper

Its all out!! It was piggybacking the coil drivers rather than the injector signals, no clue yet how it was switching then off.The wires go into the old lpg ecu from the black box

I wonder if it's something to do with this black box which had a switched live? Do i tap a switched live off the new system and hope it all just works? It joins the loom half way across the back of the engine

Can you use silicone for fuel hose?

Only certain types I believe - fluorosilicone ones. Ordinary silicone isn't a good idea.
