    Amazon fire TV sticks

    Can anyone explain to me how to download Terrarium onto my firestick? I've got that downloader app but don't know where to go to get Terrarium, also i'd like to do it through the TV rather than plugging it into a computer. Also do I need a VPN? I've never used one but since Sky started f*cking...

    My Focus ST Family Wagon

    I must say I prefer the estates but I think that's because they're a bit rarer and I could fit my dog in the back without him f*cking the seats up, but it's a Focus ST which in my book is a cool car and is definitely on my list of cars to own, it's just a shame that the older ones have such...

    V6 Coventry

    Got back to the car after walking the dog in the Memorial park and spotted this beauty parked up, not seen one in Cov before.

    Pretty rare spot for Coventry, can't recall ever seeing a V6 round my neck of the woods before.

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    Anyone else having problems with Sky blocking content? Covenant is useless as is Exodus, i've read that Sky is blocking almost all of the providers Kodi searches and as a result most of the scrapers on Kodi are essentially useless now, at least for me anyway, would installing an IP blocker help?

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    It freaked me out because the first day I saw it I though cool a Hillman Imp, then looked at the badges and got all confused.

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Quick game of guess the car, this is parked opposite my works everyday, it belongs to one of the blokes from the mot garage next door, I've seen them before but don't recognise the badge or model name, its rear engined, go.....

    The 0-60 times on the SDI engines is 17 seconds. lol I'm pretty sure my dog could out accelerate anything with that engine up to 30mph.

    If the 1.7 SDI engine can be ran on it, what about the 1.9 SDI in a mk4 Golf, or the 2.0 SDI in a mk5?

    Klaus - Lupo SDI

    Yeah you're right, I just like the idea of running some old straight 6 turbo tank on veg oil. I found an old PH thread on cheap old cars in the £30 tax bracket, so how many of these will run on veg oil then? https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=23&t=1010336 audi a2 1.4 tdi...

    Can't turn hazards off???!!!

    I came out of work once to my hazards going off which had killed the battery, RAC man came out and charged the battery but the hazards would not switch off, turns out the hazard switch had somehow broke without being touched and turned itself on, it had to be disconnected to turn them off.

    I really want to run a car on veg oil now but I doubt i'd be happy with a painfully slow car though, this is more up my street asuming it's old enough to run on straight veg oil without dying? https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C959891 3.0L straight 6 turbo £700, obviously it won't be £30 car...

    Powerflex black exhaust mount

    I'll turn it into a lace doily it if kills the vibration.

    Powerflex black exhaust mount

    Red, I think over the years my exhaust has shifted slightly, so the mount has pulled it back to where it should be and it's took all the give out of making it essentially under stress, so even a tiny bit of vibration is amplified into the boot, i'm not really using the Clio as a daily atm so a...

    Powerflex black exhaust mount

    I hate my Powerflex exhaust mount, all the vibration has been transferred to the boot lid and it's annoying as f*ck. Click on any point in the vid and you'll hear it, now imagine the revs staying at that sweet spot in traffic or on the motorway, it got a little better when I removed the plastic...

    Does mixing it with Diesel not thin it out, or does unleaded make it alot thinner?
  21. DaveDreads

    Klaus - Lupo SDI

    Pretty much, although it doesn't work as well in cold conditions because it makes the oil thicker, that's why people use a mix of veg oil and diesel, as in a quarter tank of diesel and the rest oil, or heat a load of oil up before using it as that thins it out a bit (as in heat it up and let it...

    Interesting ethnic minority clio..

    A mate of mine who is mixed race pulled me up on it, it basically means half done. It comes from the term half-caste which comes from the Latin castus meaning pure, so half-caste = impure.

    Interesting ethnic minority clio..

    I had to train myself to stop saying halfcast, as that was the term everyone used when I was growing up in the 80's, it wasn't seen as racist it was just the term used to describe someone of mixed race, even by my teachers.

    Oil leaking?

    Yes one bolt at a time is quite important, the engine can handle one bolt being removed then put back, but not a few at a time. Also if it's not instantly apparent which bolt is leaking (if any), then it's best to clean all the oil off the rocker cover as best you can, put the inlet manifold...

    Oil leaking?

    Just a bit of sealant under the head of the leaking bolt will do the trick, they're known to weep from time to time, it's not a symptom of something more serious or anything, just one of the Clio's many quirks.

    Oil leaking?

    It's probably one of the rocker cover bolts weeping I had it with one of mine, I put some gasket sealant under the head of the bolt and tightened it back up and the leak never came back, also be aware it could be more than one bolt that's leaking too. If you do this don't over tighten the...
