Thats not a valver rad in the picture above is it? the fan switch on my valver is half way up mounted on the side of the rad on the drivers side of the car?

Thought magnatec makes your engine sound crap? or is that just on valvers?

That is not right at all!

On my valver I get about 230 and thats ragging it a bit! 200 out of a RT means something is def wrong!! How much does it cost you to fill the tank?

Do you often flash at random cars which go past?

If a wheel bearing is left broken for too long it can knacker the hub, where the bit of the hub are pressed together, this can wear down to the point where they just come apart. If that happens you need a new hub.

and thats probably just cat back :p

*bump* :(

Pretty big air lock though? Could this be something to do with the water pump? Also could this explain why my fan isn't always coming on - because there isn't coolant circulating through the radiator over the fan switch - ?

Probably cost 5-10 only a 10 minute job really!

Have plenty of coolant in the car, when started from cold can bleed using the bleed screw as normal. When its hot and I open the screw, I can take it fully out of the radiator and nothing comes out not even a dribble! When the engine was revved it started coming out after a little while... is...

:edit:

Not loosing any coolant are you?

Lol you're not gonna get arrested for accidently hitting one in your car are you :p

Is it easy to remove the pump etc and have a look? its a '92 J reg...

Just a really really loud whining noise which changes in pitch, and sometime mixed in with a grinding noise as well :(

Lol I didn't even mean to bid on it! So will it fit or no :S

Electrical burning or oil burning or what kind of burning smell??

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270016672245&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3AAAQ%3AUK%3A1&rd=1 The guy who sold it to me told me he thinks it will but isn't 100% sure... Anyone confirm it will or won't fit? Cheers.

As above (just saw that other thread on the FP) it makes a really loud noise when priming and just generally pretty loud! Obv when low on petrol its v loud but now its just loud full stop. Is this the first signs of it going?

Sure it doesnt need a top up of oil? When my tappets start getting real noisey its because there isnt enough oil in it, top it up and they go quiet... Put the ignition on and see what level the oil gauge is on!

Don't you think even if she was on here (or ever happened to stumble across the forum), you posting it up might put her off ever-so-slightly?

Oilman Im just about to change the oil on my valver, its done about 112,000 miles and hasn't had an oil change since about 96,000 :o Anyway got some oil cheap from a mechanic mate, its 10w40 he said there probably wasn't much point putting 5w40 fully synt in, he suggested maybe for an engine...

Turbo/Throttle Bodies would give you most power, obviously highest cost also! Cams, gas flowed head etc then get it remapped would probably see some good gains also... Im sure Ive missed a couple things out there but basically engine work is your best bet unless you want so spend ££££

Lol I do that, but then I only have it on 2 axle stands at the front anyway

Seem to have the same with my DS2000s after a few hard braking meneovers, its like ive hardly got brakes at all! Maybe they are just over heating though...

Well exactly so they must have checked that only one of the boxes was delivered? However I just went through the ebay members other purchases and this guy has bought no less than 6 different sets of alloy wheels plus the ones he bought from me?! Varying from 4stud to 5 stud, and all kinds of...

I did think about the buyer trying to scam me, but then why would UPS and Interparcel come back to me and admit they had been lost? wouldn't they say that infact all 4 had been delivered? Or maybe they can't find them because they were infact all delivered and the guy is lying? :S Surely they...

Lucky for you! for me its the starter motor :(

Sorry mate I meant to change the column which is what I did.
