Sweet what in the hilux cup ?

 

[Fletcher]

Sweet what in the hilux cup ?

Either the Hilux cup, or 'smokey' AKA the Fabia

 

[Christopher.]

Cool beans.

 

[Hixle]

I have space in my car on the way there for anyone, but you'll have to find your own way back

 

[Christopher.]

Wont need a lift now

 

[Pete.]

No not the Van O doom or have you got a Clio back?

 

[TimR26]

Fingers crossed the Clio and he'd put oil in wrong place

 

[Fletcher]

No not the Van O doom or have you got a Clio back?

The Clio should be fixed by then. Chris said he thinks it's only got a blockage in the header tank

 

[Gorms]

Seeing as there is no rush to get down (up) there are we expecting a leisurely drive?

Im looking forward to this, got the week before off work so should be able to get 5 days of cleaning in before hand. Any chance we can have a small stop off before we get there for a quick wipe down?

 

[Christopher.]

Yes Clio is back in action

Blockage in header tank, possibly caused the dirty coolant. But am to keep my eye on it. Temp gauge is no longer jumping around and holds half way ! And possibly the funniest thing is the burning smell was caused by my mate lowering the front too much so one of the drive shafts was rubbing on the undertray !

Remove the undertray mate, weight saving and aids cooling all in one

Purchased a shed load of cleaning gear a couple of weeks ago and haven't managed to get any on my car yet. Got to get on it ready for css

 

[Christopher.]

Mine might get the hose if its lucky, although it would be nice to get it up to a decent shine. hmmmmmmm

 

[Fletcher]

I doubt I'll bother cleaning the DERV.

 

[Pete.]

If the weather improves I may have to take the Clay Bar to the Pope Mobile as it is swirl city at the moment. Got my ticket this morning so will add another sticker to the rear window.
