alcyonecorporation Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 FLEET UPDATE: This is still being an arse. Box is blowing on this; it sounds like an enraged airport tug.

He bought it about 2 years ago from Cornwall I think, paid about £300-it's a diesel manual. Iain the owner is a Range Rover genius-simply the best.

Bren Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Part 2 of vectra fixerage. The orinal pipe was wider at the bottom than the top. All I could get was 19mm heater hose. I opened it out with a grinding stone in a drill. Aa a After manging to get it on ( it branches off from from the pipe that feeds the airbox) I took a piccy. Access is shocking and I have a broken thumbnail as a result. It would have been impossible without these - my best recent buy. They are for those springy clips - they lock so you dont have to keep the pressure on and the jaws rotate so the square edges of the clip. The other end was much wider than the original - sealant and a jubilee clip were required. I gave everything a spray of bullshit shine. My 7mm spanner fell into the depths and I had to take fixings out of the bumper and undertray to find it - I then saw how much mess the oil had made. Despite still looking good for 2007 I realise it is getting tired - it has done 145k now - if my fix hasn't worked I will not be going back again.

Spurious Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Got a wee thread gauge off Amazon.

Split_Pin Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Made a start on the Cavalier today. I have had to remove a lot of pipe work just to get the fan out. The radiator is ready to come out now, I just need to remove the battery for clearance. There's a big hole at the bottom of it so I am glad I am replacing it. It's 20 to 6 now, I am still on holiday so I shall louse and get a beer or 3. Off to the exhaust place tomorrow to speak to the chap about the Audi.

richardmorris Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Agreed to spend a lot of money this afternoon after a test drive. Nice trip out to newlands corner in the sun. Car drove well enough- no classic Mercedes or Citroen but ok and with decent tyre walls too. This space will soon be filled - not going outside the current marque collection though. I did feel old when the salesman asked how long I’d had the 2cv and when I said 26 years, he said he was 22! RobT, Tickman and Bren 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
