Re: Austin A35 Project

So .... somewhere in the depths of my garage is a small package with two Nitrile Rubber Oil Seals .. but do you think I can find it?? :x So a new pair have been ordered ... The old ones will no doubt turn up where I least expect them either just after I've installed the new ones or as I'm rummaging...

Parkside tools

Hi chaps, I need a camera thing for occasional jobs. Are the parkside ones any good? I don't need anything special and this looks cheap https://www.lidl.fr/p/parkside-camera-d-inspection-pkik-4-3-b3/p100371993?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=sho-sea_shop_cid-20219662458&utm_content&utm...

You have been busy! I have modified several tools to make them do stuff they weren't designed for.. a bit naughty I suppose, but necessity is the mother of invention..

Re: 206

After a visit to the mechanic it's showing po170 and po130 codes.. I'm going to give it a dose of injector cleaner and check if anything is amiss.. ive already had a look but can't see anything.. would it be worth changing the lambda sensor?

Re: Restoring bumper back to black on 1996 Audi cabriolet

Hiya mate, rub it down properly to gey a decent key/finish. have a word with your local paint supplier. Ask if he can do the paint in rattle cans..
Post some photos when it's done..
