Probably just one of the rocker cover bolts, they're known to weep every now and again, best thing to do is whip the inlet manifold off, clean all the oil off the rocker cover, refit the manifold, drive it for a few days and see if there's any fresh oil seeping out, if there's a bolt leaking...

Yep, when I went to Llandow I got carried away and did about 20 laps in a row, one of my tyres melted, the brake pads turned to dust, the heat from the exhaust melted the hangers so the exhaust near enough fell off, it ended up banging on the rear beam and the back box was scraping on the...

Much better idea would be to go to a junk yard, pick a car, one day to get it running, next day whoever drives the furthest wins. Then do one with MCM, junkyard V8 vs junkyard turbo.

I never have, just do them up until tight, just don't He-Man them or you'll strip the threads.

Will do, never been in a S/C Clio.

Sadly not, car needs new tyres, new ball joints, an oil change and my exhaust is held on with zip ties.

Just bought my ticket, might actually be able to come better equipped to this camping trip seeing as I won't have the dog with me, back seat full of booze!

Tbh the episode would probably have 10,000 views while they're still be choosing what biscuits they want with their tea.

Roadkill would have bought a car, got it running and be in the next state while they're still organising their tools.

What I don't understand is how he's never heard of them, Hot Rod magazine, the Power tour and drag week are absolutely huge in the US, for him to have never heard of Finnegan and Freiburger he must be just be looking at p**n on the internet and his reflection in the screen the rest of the time.

I hope MCM are still involved.

It should make a big enough difference to notice, I could certainly tell when I did mine. As said, 1100 rpm on cold start up, 950 rpm when warm if it's worked.

I'm frightened, I going to hide in my tent.

Some serious money gone into that.

That's rather nice. I saw something the other day that said Subaru have dropped the name Impreza in favour of just calling them WRX's.

I take you're under 25 too?

As is an air freshener, seat covers, different makes of tyres, brake pads, windscreen wipers, lots of cars are fitted with stuff that isn't factory, if your insurance company want to get out of a claim they'll find something to screw you on, other insurers couldn't care less about non oem stuff...

That's a mean looking car.

1100 rpm on cold startup, 950 rpm once warmed up. OEM map is 1000 rpm on cold start and 850 rpm once warm.

Do you get Sky F1?

I've worked, i'm just no good at it.

It's just one of those things that everyone else seems to have done but I never, like fishing, paint balling or riding a motorbike.

I've never driven a go-kart in my life but I suspect i'll be awesome at it, now to lose 4 stone so I have a chance of winning.

I'll have a go at that, they don't breathalyze you beforehand do they?

Saw that the other day, I wonder if it's got less rust than one that's sat out side for 20 years?

That Escort looks like fun, the colour's unforgivable though.

You got any photos of how it looks now?

Looks like she's taking a sh*t on the bonnet.

I've never looked more homeless than I do in that N/V photo so the beard's gone, results are here. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/the-beard-thread.751812/page-12#post-10805943
