  1. When i bought my classic from Jamie(hisoob),the one I'm now trying to sell,I'm sure he said it had a closed deck block.....how is it you tell,someone please remind me :cussing:

    ta much

    I think there are hatched markings near the alternator belt or pulley!

  2. I must have just been lucky Grant, the first guy that phoned me from London via piston heads asked all the right questions and then flew up to Edinburgh and bought the car cash. The only worry i had was the cash being dodgy but the bloke came back to my local bank whilst i deposited the money before heading off with my wagon. The guy may just be a dreamer or he may be genuine and just hasn't bought a car from so far away or in this manner before. ( bit of a cheek wanting you to drive it to him though )

  3. Can anyone give me advice or any 'links' to use as a step by step guideon fitting a boost guage to my 1999 model classic .I've not done this before and would like to know i'm doing it properly first time around,any input appreciated.Thanks.

    Tommo do a search either here or over on scoobynet for fitting boost gauge and you will find lots of threads explaining how to do it.

  4. nice on mate im on the look out for a new road bike cheap for getting to work winter training etc but if the petrol thing gets that bad no one will be going to work anyway

    just scare mongering as usual but if everybody panic buys we will be stuffed just buy your petrol as normal same day same amount etc the there will be enough to go round

    neil

    Have actually read the thread this is not scare mongering. Some of the plants have begun shutting down, by the end of the week production will have stopped. The union and the management arent even discussing the problems any more only how to shut the place down safely.

  5. Thats him. a 07 civic type r import that kicks the uks ass! Just spoke to him on the phone and he was at a gun range firing a desert eagle yesterday!

    I had a mate who was in cambodia and got to fire an ak47. They then offered him a hand grenade that he could blow up a chicken with or for more cash he could shoot a cow with a rocket launcher :icon_salut:;):o

  6. Good luck with getting someone to answer that one.

    I asked 20 minutes ago on Page 1 and I count at least 3 INEOS employees who have posted since then and totally ignored me.

    Andy i am not ignoring you but i work in the chemicals rather than the refinery so i dont know. I was hoping somebody else would answer taht one. :icon_salut:

  7. No pay for a month.....that would suck!

    Hope the boss's back down before it gets to bad eh!

    Not on strike for a month, its only a two day strike but due to the nature of our business it can take a couple of weeks to shut down and hydrocarbon free our plant and then starting it back up can take quite some time as well.

  8. I'm sure that even if it is just the drivers that are going on strike, I'm sure that the site must have some sort of safe storage level, they can hold more than what they do, but theres bigger safely implications...

    but I do Agree, this could quite well be a minor pain in the butthole...

    The union told the company that the plants would be hydrocarbon free'd before they were left so there should be no safety issues. I heard from a source that diesel will run out before petrol but i dont know what stock levels are kept.

  9. Will check that out with my mate who works there. Although he is in vagas to watch the fight tonight!

    Dont need to check it out mate i work there! Unless something drastic happens the strike looks as if its going ahead. They are starting to shut down plants tomorrow as it takes a long time to get them hydrocarbon free.

  10. Press scare mongering as usual and showing the sort of responsability that causes major problems.

    Why would the driver striking cause major saftey issues?? BBC want a kick up the ar$e!! I will be filling up the focus on friday to be safe though in case all the panic merchants start their crap! The same ones that at xmas buy 15 loafs from the supermarket and meant I had none!

    grrrr :icon_salut:

    It not the drivers striking! Its the whole site ;)
