Re: Sudden loud rattle, engine cuts off, then restarts after a few minutes
I'm pretty sure bore wash is petrol only. Yeah, the intermittent lack of compression is bizarre :shock: The blocked inlet sounds good - like blocking the hose on a vacuum cleaner makes the motor speed up 'cos it's running in a vacuum. The pressure regulator is looking mighty suspect, but as the snap...

Re: Air vent frame color
Googles "brunito", Googles "burnished" - ah, shiny. I'm guessing you mean the 4 air vents across the dashboard? Is aluminium brunito a specific colour? Maybe somewhere that mixes up paint then, you'll need to use a primer for plastics (and make sure the vents are clean of any polishes etc. or it'll...

Re: and today i have mostly been...
That does sound scary :shock: Glad she's ok now. It's humbling to realise how much we take for granted. And how much we should be angry that the Tories want to sell off in the name of profit. :evil: :evil: I forgot to mention my moles (carrot-osis) were all biopsied, all nothing of course. I think n...

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Was the cupping anything to do with the tracking? Not very impressed with the crackage though, definitely not when you're carting family about. Cost? I dread to think. I did have a squint for the tyres but, not knowing exactly the size, it's anywhere between steep and kidney. I looked them up here t...

I dunno, I don't think we were as bad, when I got my first flat it was all hand-me-downs, worn out furniture, mattress on the floor, my bro's old telly that I had to have a supply of shoes to throw at 'cos of all the dry joints inside...

Re: Help identifying parts (ES9J4)
Hi. It might be useful to know what year the car was built. Umm, I'm thinking this is an automatic and that's the selector switch on the end of the cable. We're a bit (lot) lacking in wiring diagrams these days but looking at this thread https://www.406oc.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=8234 ok, it's a m...

Re: My new mowtah
Hi Dai, good to hear from you. New motah looks stonking, good colour. We're doing ok here ta, bluddy hot though (although I see it's been worse in the UK, you poor buggahs). Still lurking about myself, even chipping in if I have a clue (which isn't often tbh). Hmm, new car? Not until the yoyo falls ...

Re: 505 GTi Dingle dangel on the Bay
Doesn't an F make it 1989? I've kind of lost touch but I didn't think you were allowed to put a plate with a later index, making the car appear newer than it is. Anyway, private plate my bottom. Ebay just emailed me peugeot 505 gti dangel 4x4 off road rare for restoration is almost yours Yeah, right...
