looking good channelle when u gonna start putin the kit on?

your the worst lol

there are some right sick people on this forum haha

welcome to uksc erm.... wierd bloke . odd name lol. post up some pics of your car. im sure you will be able to buy parts for them bud

haha brilliant

whats the formula for working this out geo? why not add a calculator thingy at the bottom to enter your bhp and wieght (if known) so people could work out thier own power to wieght ratio?

fs hes getting big:O so did u rub his face in the shit lol?

i never started mines up when i done it, i put redex in with a full tank and just gave it a good thrash for a day or 2 it was a wee bit smokey and a bit boggy for the first 10 mins then it was back to normal, but everytime i burped i could taste the diesel for about 3 days haha f*cking mingin good luck to you anyway bud im sure it will be fine. if you taqke it to a garage they will charge u about 160 quid but its an easy job

i wouldnt say so, a little petrol in a diesel isnt too bad but too much will burn the ti[ps of the injectors. diesel in a petrol isnt that bad if anything it will lube things up lol, 1ce ity burns away itll be fine

just stick a hose in the keep it as low as you can, even crouch down at the side of the car and start sucking, 1ce it gets to your mouth pull the hose out and keep it pointing down and keep it as low as u can and make sure u have the other end rite at the bottom. your injectors should be fine. its worse the other way around as petrol burns the tips off diesel injectors. the diesel will prob just lube things up a bit lol, as for whats in the lines i wouldnt worry about it, it will burn away eventually and be a bit smokey

aye good luck lol a couple of mouthfulls of diesel haha.

i did it before xmas bud lol hung over and put in diesel. luckily i didnt start it but it wont do you any harm. just lift the back seat out lift the cap and youl have 3 or 4 hoses with about 8 screws round it take them out and syphon it from there, change your fuel filter and fill it up and bobs your auntie. diesel burns slower than petrol so it wil be clogged up a bit but it should pass no problem

sounds more than fair to me lol

i knew you wouldnt say how much lol

doesnt surprise me you baught it lol. if anything pops up thats even related to an ep then theres a good chance youl buy it haha how much did you pay for it bud?

i noticed it a while back, i knew it was bad and i was gonna replace it anyway. but i didnt think it was that bad. when i took the skirt off i almost cried haha but it looks a lot worse than it is, all the rot can be cut away and the new sill replaces the lot. so happy days. but it just shows you what can happen because the skirts hold water and thats what made it go so bad. get ures sorted first, then when u put your skirts on get it sealed up well. good luck with your project ill be keeping an eye on it

big plans for this little car eh lol u said you have 500 quid spare why not drop a fte in lol the sr u have baught looks clean but defo get that sill treated before you put on the skirts look at my thread buckets glanza u will see in there how an untreated sill goes (nasty)

the part i got from toyota was only 19 inches long lol to buy a full sill it comes in 3 pieces 1 bit form the wheel arch then the centre bit(which i got) then u need to buy a rear qaurter panel for the other bit lol anyway the 1 from the fiesta is perfect for the job it lines up perfect with it ples tucks right under past where the damage is. when the skirt is on you can barley see it there is also a wee rust bubble on the back arch so thats getting done too plus any other wee dings or anything. the paintwork is immaculate and the guy thats doing it for me says there wont be a problem trying to match the paint. im gonna get down to my m8s lockup and pick up my spray gun and compressor too and im gonna do the sideskirts and bumpers too cause i have a ltr of paint so i may as well lol

i know bud, i thought it was bad before i took the sideskirt off. When it came off i couldnt believe it its just as well the rotten bit can be cut away. i got a sill from toyota but it wasnt big enuff so the sill i ended up having to buy was off a mk3 fiesta lol but it does the job perfectly it aloows that extra bit just to cut the rot away and replace it

well after giving the car a wee clean today i decided to go take some photos before it goes away to get fixed on monday sideskirts back on 2 save too much embarresment at the rolling road day 2morro lol and 1 from the other day on my fone
