    What have you done to your car today ???

    Washed it at the weekend - it was strangely satisfying to wipe the crud and other crap from behind the clips that had sat in situ for two decades!

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Flicked off the exhaust tip surrounds over the weekend to get them painted up - proper faded and crap looking. High winds put paid to that, however! Still, got them sanded ready for primer. Might give those exhaust tips a once over with some polish while I'm there.

    The Gaming Thread (General Gaming Jibba Jabba)

    Spent nearly 5 minutes pissing about with the radio, right at the start. Had me thinking about if it took me that long to turn a dial and to pull an aerial up - how the hell would I be even able to move and shoot anything. ;) Any game controls should not only be instinctive, but quickly become...

    Anyone familiar with DevOps? Simple question....

    Hi all, New to Microsoft DevOps myself, but learning it from a BA perspective. Just wanted to know if there's a simple document storage option per project at all? I want to upload generalised items like .docx, .pdf, .vsd files and the like that cover scoping docs, stakeholder analysis - items...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Not today, but on Sunday I had my preventative maintenance head on. Swapped out the inlet O-ring. Added a new inlet gasket while I was there. Removed the TDC sensor and gave that a good clean up. Cleaned up the relay tray and inserted them back in. Cleaned out the fuse panel and wire...

    182 Engine Shuts off while driving. Electrical Issue?

    Hmmm - your issue might closely align with mine. That brake switch was swapped a few months back in an attempt to investigate the cruise control issue. Since then, it can occasionally dip into the idling revs, almost to the point of stalling. It never has, but it does sound related as I never...

    182 Engine Shuts off while driving. Electrical Issue?

    Could be. Mine's been weird for ages. I could switch the limiter on, or the cruise and the orange and green lights would light on the dash accordingly. However, they did nothing with to affect the car's speed. I had the brake switch swapped as a test a while back and now the limiter works...

    182 Engine Shuts off while driving. Electrical Issue?

    Curious - why would a brake switch make the engine die? Is it a fail-safe device?

    Rail above airbox

    Looks great in colour-matched blue.

    Rail above airbox

    Brill - thanks guys, I've attached it to the wrong side. Out with the screwdriver at dinner...... :P

    Rail above airbox

    Just checking on that image - is the closest end of the rail on the right-hand side of the bulkhead, then screwed up against it? I think I might have put mine to the left? Possibly....

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Lol - I do indeed.... :P

    Rail above airbox

    Cheers for that. It seems I've got it the same, yet it looks like it fouls the side of the OEM airbox, where that hex screw goes in? Could be just me, but I'm sure I've not got it right.

    Rail above airbox

    Hi all, Has anyone got a picture of the way the rail above the 182 airbox connects at the front end? I’ve put everything together after some work on it today and it doesn’t ‘look’ right. Cheers.

    Likely to be the starter?

    Got the endoscope down there to check on the starter. Surprisingly looked quite tidy and the heatshield is definitely in place. Given how tricky it was to use an endoscope in the confines of that space, 100% confirmed that I wouldn't attempt to swap the starter out myself. The garage can have...
