Works fine on my skysports
Hope that helps
I nearly launched my firestick through the window yesterday. I tried to catch the 2nd half of the stoke game and gave up trying to get it work at 16:40
The 200piece set has drive adaptors, which as Rob says are always handy.
There's a few people on eBay selling various bits of halfords advanced stuff if you don't want to buy a full set, or want to add bits to your collection
Might give it a go as we've got some in that I don't like. Neighbours are going to think I'm mental!
"Ere, John, look at the new lad next door. He's rubbing peanut butter all over his car"
Its 72k miles or 5 years mate.
Its people who think "oh its only done 3000 miles, it'll be fine"
They're ignorant to the fact that rubber perishes over time
You could always try loosening the top mount, pulling the engine as far forward as possible, and tighten it up again. That fixed the issue on my old 172
After reading through @SharkyUK project thread, he's used a heavier than normal flywheel so maybe he can offer some advice as there must be a reason he has gone that route?
I rekkon its camber. Car lowered, negative camber induced as a result. Can still make the wheels point forward fine.
The more -camber then the less the contact point on the road surface, meaning less resistance hence feeling loose?
Theory sounds right in my head anyway :)
Yeah I'd be up for that, Dave :) must make more of an effort to chat to you this year aswell. Only said hello in passing last time
Who's the most mental person on track here? They need to take Jackie out and scare the s**t out of her :) haha
Well the Mrs has been using it as a daily for the past two months so I've lost all interest in general maintenance lol! Plus if I break it, she'll be fucked for getting work :(
Think I'll be giving track time a miss this year. I can't be arsed spending the money on my car to get it upto standard. I'll be begging passenger laps though :)
Ryan, I think buying this would be no slick manoeuvre. The damage already done could put you onto a slippery slope, hold out and you could slide into a much better buy. Don't Fuch yourself over by purchasing an engine that could be damaged beyond repair.
