The lowest bidder? Tata anyone?

Go on. Does peanut butter really work? Do you wipe it off after or leave it? What is wrong with crunchy?

iPhone runs a variant of Mac OSX, which is a descendent of Free BSD, not Linux. There's no reason why someone couldn't write an EAS app for iPhone, and supply a cable, but looks like no one has yet. I was sure Apple said there was an app for everything. How could they have missed this?

if its an RRC, it would mean there's one thing below the carpet that isn't rusty :)

Pretty sure it has open diffs at each end, with a viscous coupling between in the transfer box. so it shouldn't be possible to spin both wheels at one end: the VCU will stop it. if you can really spin both front and not rear (and vice versa) yet your can't easily turn a single lifted wheel, then...

what's an over run sound?

You'll have to have a look and see where its coming from - possible that they just forgot to do a fuel hose up again properly.

I think I read somewhere that it is basically as simple as supplying 12v, as long as you have the switches. If you have the seats, can't hurt to try just adding power...

I hope you're right, but I'd still be keeping my eye on the temp gauge. I wonder if having a hole in the stat helps bleed it when the water is cold?

Stat is not in the head or block I thought on that engine, so hot water not getting to it...

Having lpg installed on top of 2.5k purchase doesn't really sound such a bargain. I think you'll find several on ebay under 3k with lpg already. Rasheed, not sure your position is sound. If you follow it through, don't we all end up walking because we can't afford to buy and maintain our ideal...

Water pump?

I wouldn't like to bet on it. best way to know is drive it hard, and do all the other checks mentioned in many threads on here.

I think the fuel leak must be coincidental. just not done up right since you changed the filter?

poor bugger wasn't even trying to save the planet. just reporting an experiment! very harsh gentlemen.

If the manifold cracked out laning, did the exhaust get a whack? Maybe something got crushed and you have partial blockage.

Wouldn't blocked intercooler only cause it to collapse on outlet side? Or do I have my inlet/outlet definitions wrong?

Sounds unworkable to me. I'll put a fiver on there not being an mot check for chipping in next few years.

That is amazing. I wonder if my rrc can do that. Is it really more about the car or the driver?

Had kids in the car lately?
