stereotype Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Take note of the poor things that ended up with my lazy arse. This is going to be a dull disaster but welcome to a random list of the poor unfortunate souls that come into my possession. Currently - '88 Peugeot 205 1.1 GL - '07 Suzuki EN125 2A (TWO WHEELS!?) That's it I told you it would be boring. I'll just not mention the previous 1.2 Clio's since one is perpetually SORN'd as a donor Clio (RIP SLOP FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS AND TATTOOED ON MY LEG) and the other one was moved on to some other 19 year old to probably crash (YOU WERE A GOOD FREN) Previous - SL04PKE - '04 1.2 Clio - Crashed it, now in Valhalla - V36FRN - '99 1.2 Clio - L38WLD - '94 1.9 Xantia Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an oil leak which is coming from (general area) under the distributor. There is a pressure switch under there but also the top of the gearbox is also in the same area. This was thoroughly cleaned back and this shall hopefully show where fresh oil is coming from. That about right Chuck Always tidy workers! Got pics of the oil leak?

stereotype Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 An update featuring father Tickman. Tinkering continued to Fleur and a few bits were robbed off the heap of dad's MR2, such as a rubber tube and a radio that would turn blue. Much useful. A need for more grippy things was also discovered. Maybe just cable ties. We'll see. A previous tinker revealed the stickiness of the front brakes. Since father Tickman pried the mechanism back open while I sat on my phone like a typical teen, the fuel economy has appeared to improve definitely pleasing my budgeted heart. It was even better when I put Super Unleaded Super Expensive Super Cool Shell Fuel in her. Still cannot tell whether the sticker recommending fuel is a genuine thing or a placebo. As the source of the oil leak is not yet determined, we are exploring other possibilities like gearbox oil (as she does like to get nasty when you try and move into reverse). Also as REB has told many a story of how his 205 decided to shit itself an oily turd one day at work. Fingers crossed my baby doesn't end up like that. Surprisingly, the car is staying relatively clean. I've hoovered it a whole two times since getting her from Bucketeer! Coffee stain removal and seat repair will commence hopefully before the end of the year. Maybe I'll shampoo the ceiling, the possibilities are truly endless. Also I can kind of weld!
