L33 Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 this has really cheered me up guys on a bit of a downer with current situations today what about the inspection side of it? as it may be more than just changing pump! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 this has really cheered me up guys on a bit of a downer with current situations today what about the inspection side of it? as it may be more than just changing pump! A basic visible inspection shouldn't be too difficult, as far as the head goes I'll see if I can get my hands on a boroscope. I seem to remember there is someone here who had contacts for oil analysis. Compression and leakdown, shouldn't be too difficult either. I've got a compression tester and again, should be able to secure a leakdown unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 this has really cheered me up guys on a bit of a downer with current situations today what about the inspection side of it? as it may be more than just changing pump! im sure we will be able to sort it even if it means popping up a fiew times not as if every body has to come in thier own vehicles,just pile them in my van.too be honest its the labour cost that always bumps the price of any repair up.could even make a weekend of it as long as theres somewhere to sleep,you know we aint fussy where we fall.

Pudsey Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I am sure with the weather turning around we could set up some tents or something in the garden, knew it wouldn't take long for everyone to start catching onto the angle I was coming from. If need be we could have the whole engine out and stripped in a couple hours, it isn't really a massive job if you know what your doing that is. Should be seeing some good weather soon too. Great to see your willing to take the mobile work shop Barney, great stuff. Might need to hang onto that hoist, if its okay with Stu!!!

SupraStar 3000 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 well done guys. Don't loose faith Lee. Debt and Supras come hand in hand - I know Its a cracking car and worth just a little more hassle.
