the squiggle

I will be in the Yellow van See you up there about whenever o'clock

Spotted a recent trend of a Traffic unit sitting at the next slip road after the scamera, esp on the M74 North and Southbound around Abington. Since my van is now governed to a indicated 75mph i join the 74 at Moffat and sit with my foot flat on floor all the way home, nearly. I love it when just before i get to Abington and some tosser in a Beemer, Audi, Toureg comes screaming past then slams on the anchors, nearly losing and sometimes actually fishtailing it cause the van sits on a bridge just after the bend in the road...............Priceless I do average of 70000 - 80000 miles a year through work (in another 17 months i will have covered 1000000 miles in a business capcity) and agree with WRXMANIA, never had the need for a detector, i just use my eyes and drive accordingly.

Is there seriously going to be a "Ignore user" feature? Excellent work by all concerned, looking forward to the unveiling of SIDC 2.0

Please enlighten us as to what you actually did around here. I have a cup of tea ready and a smoke in the ashtray awaiting your reply So we should bow down before you and praise you for past glories, while we bow before your greatness, could you turn water into Buckfast and part the Clyde between Helensburgh and Greenock. Why not come along to a local meet Dougster, get to know some of the new breed of Forum members. Wether or not anyone would actually talk to you is another matter but the invite is there none the less

Quieten down in the cheap seats, the rustling of your Wurthers Original's are putting off the other patrons

Already a member of that one but i prefer www.everyonedoesit.com, much more informative and good prices tooooooo Another one for you www.fullofyourownselfimportance.com click on the annoying ex-social worker link for some topless action Back on topic Ally, You gong to the commercial venture known as the other SIDC tonight, have a suggestion for a run along under the Erskine Bridge or maybe Doon the Watter towards the tail o the bank then over the old Largs Rd for some closed roads WRC action round the loch. Maybe we hire a transporter to take the cars to Mallory Park in Leicestershire for a private testing session, the guy that owns the shop at the end of the road says his Uncle bought it for "a couple of donkeys and a pencil sharpener" and it would be cool for us to head down anytime.

Who cares what you condone or not condone, why not sign up for the Mondeo Owners Club and leave us in peace to get on with running a very successful club http://www.fordmondeoownersclub.co.uk/

Nice one boss Now give her some beans

Nice pics in general but cracking smile across yer face in the last one Good shouting at you today, could not hear a word you said in reply but i think we got the jist of it

Special thanks to Tam for the Roll and Sausage

This is an awesome picture Neil

My favourite car of the day Ford Anglia with a 200SX engine....................me likey a lot Some SIDC stand pictures......top stand lads and lassies Arty pics Gus, this is why Imy calls you Guspants Scott and Neil enjoyed the display from the lycra clad cops Subaru dealer stand Some "Show" cars The mobile sound station of Mr ED-209

Nice pics Off topic, do you have the maps for your phone on the memory card or streaming them online?

You aint gonna gain any performance by sticking two kittens into the combustion chamber

....and whats the next phase.....engine from a Cheiftan tank with RA gearing and plastic Airfix bodyshell or maybe the engine from a 747 running on Nitro-Methanol with a touch of Benzine for good measure

Only 125 horse power for each big end to cope with. Hats off to you boss. NUTTER

and just to confirm ...................... this is still a 2 Litre engine Scottishscoobies rocks* *apart from the troll but if we dont feed him he may just go away

I told you that you were nuts....now its confirmed Now confirmed the first Scottish/South African hybrid from North Fife to break 500 hp in a freaking WRX Knockers at the end of the month just got a bit more interesting

Nice one Big Man Congrats to the wife for all the hard work Loverly name for a tot

Looking good boss, better than the last time i saw it at Alford

Spotted that as we joined the motorway. I thought to myself "he would not be silly enough now would he", turns out the Porker driver was silly after all

Compression check next to make sure she is still gas tight in the cylinders. You say the guage is showing less of a reading, this suggests an air leak somewhere in the manifold area. Find that and fix that first off, maybe a leaky hose or pipe could even be a split in the cooler. With a rebuild been done so recently i would go to the garage that done the rebuild for a check over, they would/should do the compression check Check all the earths going from engine to baulkhead and make sure the connectors on the ignition amplifier are clean (located behind the boost control solenoid on the inner wing drivers side) Check all the connections around the injectors Reset the ECU by either doing the Green plug thing or disconnecting the battery over night. ECU may be stuck on the old mistimed settings from when the timing belt was out, now the belt is correctly timed it may be struggling with the base timing and hence running like a burst fart

2.2bar was with vac pipe connected, so 2.7bar disconnected. Originally Pete contacted me be cause the car would not pull any boost at all and would eat a full tank in about 100 miles. Upon checking the fuel pressure it was found to be at something silly after a FSE reg had been fitted and not set with a guage. Car was subsequently rolling roaded and the operator pointed out the car was badly over fuelling. I would source a Phase 1 manifold and fit that in the short term, then the ECU will fuel the car as expected. Match the injectors and manifold to the ECU and it ill make it easier to diagnose the fault

You still on the std ECU? I was thinking you had 440's in there as per Phase 1.5 manifold and not as big as 550's I am thinking the jump from 550s to the 380s that the ECU will be looking for is too much Best bet while on the std ecu is fit some 380's (cheap from any breakers) and let the ECU control injectors of a size it is capable of insteaad of getting it to flow 2 sizes bigger than the ECU is expecting AlanG, Pete runs an early WRX that is fitted with a Phase 1.5 engine while still on the early 4 port ECU

Now i am gonna build a spliff and pass it around, please take a couple of draws and pass it on to the next man. Very important now that you dont bogart the joint, thats real baaaaaaaddd I
