    Small disaster

    I lost £250 yesterday: I was at Sainsbury’s and after the shopping, I went to get some fuel as the tank was all but empty and I filled to with ... diesel... and I drove off... I actually managed just a little over 15 yards, and it stopped. A one hour wait, £170 to drain and flush, £40 worth of...

    Meet RAY

    I came out of the supermarket in St Albans and next to me (TUJ) was RAY. V15 RAY is owned by Ray - he has had it since new (1999). He lives about ½ a mile away and I've seen him around quite a bit, but always when one of us was travelling. V15 RAY isn't a Thunder but has a Connelly hide black...

    Shiny New MOT

    I have just returned from the garage with an MOT without any advisories. In many years of driving, someone has always found fit to point out "brake pipe missing; steering gear falling off; fuel pissing out" "speck of dirt on number plate; small stone in tyre tread; Radio tuned to Radio 1, etc."...

    Lights on Heater Control Panel

    This is a picture of the PCB in the heater panel: and this is the whole back There are 2 holes for capless bulbs. Are there any more lights in the unit? (e.g. under the power input.) I ask as I replaced the bulb nearer the heater speed switch and it's still not lighting up. It could have...

    Respray

    So about a month or so back, I needed the arches doing, so bought some from Kizza. Getting them welded on was another matter but eventually it was done with seam welding as opposed to the tack welding that was done to start with. Once this was done, I went off to get a front bumper as mine had...

    Parcel Shelf Solution

    You hook the cords from the parcel shelf over the nipples on the boot; you close the boot; you open the boot and at least one of the cords has fallen off: Solution: I went to the local tool hire shop and he gave me 6 (and a circlip) for free. Put to loops on the nipples, now put one of...

    Inside of the rear bumper

    Does anyone have a clear photograph of the inside of the rear bumper, particularly the offside and nearside ends? I took my car to a welder/restorer to have metal arches inserted, and now, both ends of the bumper are sticking out a little. I can push them back but they just spring out again. It...

    Barry

    I've never heard of the word “Barry.” So I looked in Urbandictionary.com [ http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=barryboys" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ], and that led me to http://www.barryboys.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=39331"...

    2014 Puma

    I was considering what a 2014 Puma would look like. The first thing is that Ford has used the grill from the Aston Martin as a motif. Obviously, it would still be based on the Fiesta, so that presented no problem – get a photo of the front of a Fiesta and squash it down. However, once you do...

    Hot and Smelly

    I had been smelling a sort of hot/burning smell for a few days but had found nothing significant. The evidence has now had time to crystallize... [See lower picture] The hose from the block to the top of the radiator has a leak but (for convenience :x ) it is at the block end. It looks as if...

    Minor Rust

    Well, I hope it's minor. As far as anyone is aware, is this significant? Also at https://www.flickr.com/photos/108408078@N06/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

    The cause of front banging

    On snookertable flat roads, the suspension was fine, however the odd imperfection in the road surface on a corner could cause the front end to skip and the suspension to sound as if it were bottoming As you can see, the drop-link is see-through at the bottom. This is rarely a good sign. As...

    What's this all about?

    I bought a sparewheel carrier today. It was from an '02 Puma. Whilst de-rusting it, I came across this list stamped into the centre of it: Any ideas what it's about?
