Cheers mate, if it won't fit i'll definitely take you up on that.
Only when catastrophically drunk, I don't do that anymore since my body aged 20 years in the past 2.
It's not cheap stuff and you'll need a fair few coats to make it look good, also heard horror stories of it peeling peoples lacquer off when they remove it, but these were yank reviews so who knows, you should be fine if it's just plastic trim pieces.
Take that plastic sump tray off, wipe everything down until there's no oil on anything, run the car for a few days without the tray and see where they oil's coming from.
Also prepare yourself for the reality that it might be leaking from more than one place. :ROFLMAO:
Usual suspects are :
Sump plug
Sump Gasket
Rocker Cover gasket
Might be worth checking your gearbox oil too, when I first got a 172 I knew nothing about the input selector seal leaking, I only found out once the gearbox was dry and it exploded at 70mph.
Yep i'll be having a go in that, passenger laps is as exciting as it gets for me now the Clio's broke, hopefully he can scare me more than I scare myself, if i'm not crying by the end then he's failed!
Should have said it got new plugs today after we saw the state of them, had to get multipoints with the wrong gaps but they still improved the running a fair bit, got it home without any problems.
Well figured out what's wrong with it, spent the afternoon at Ryan's trying to get the bottom of this and as I was pulling onto his drive it cut out again and the dash lit up, Clip didn't tell us much so we had a look at the engine, two of the HT leads were moving about so we took the inlet off...
On holiday in Spain with your hot wife and hilarious kids that look like great fun, yet still thinking about your track car, f*cking love you Gumbo! :ROFLMAO:
