damn right mate, nigh on 40 quids a joke. i am gruding paying a tenner for the F&M show on sunday!

Yeah go get my bits. If theres a heatshield on the inlet man above the injector wiring plugs I need that to mofo, its small enough to hide as well.

I have Mike F and his 1.2 clio coming over to get sorted. Theres a lot of oil about so will clean thgat out and hopefully that will resolve the idle issue, if not then I think it may need a software upgrade.

I was also thinking of finally doing the rear wheel cylinder and brake pipe on the grey clio.

remov3d the old wheel cylinder and backplate.

Cleaned the backplate uo so its as new,

Made a new brake pipe up.

but theres 1 issue.

Muppet here forgot the gay rear wheel cylinders are a different union to the rest of the system and to disc brake cars.

So i don't have a union to finish the pipe to allow the rear brakes to be fully built up!

So i need to get the train into paisley and go to pmf/erics and get a union to finish the job all before 1pm when mike f comes over in his clio.
