gaz Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 thanks for the info mate.dont think so it look like clumps of oil just dropping out the exhaust, it was spraying it a bit, looked like water with oil out the inside of the exhaust but aint seen it do it before, i was wondering if it was anything to do with jump starting.

gaz Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 i worked it out now, wouldnt start because of what ScutchO said and the black shit was fuel where we tried jump starting it. lolall my buddies think my cars crap now, and think it has loads wrong with it just because 'I' left the lights on.

Guest Enzo Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 to me in general french cars are crap, have a shelf life and are shit to work on, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Robbo Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I've left my lights on twice with the battery going flat, once all day at work, got a push on that one, and once at the cinema (left for 2 hours on sidelights) and my dad had to come out with jump leads.it's a right bugger I agree!I might be different to you lot but i love it when people say my car is shit etc, they get proved its not quicker then they get to laughing at their own jokes about it usually.
