Jim Bell Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 45 minutes ago, Supernaut said: Two weeks later. Yes. That's a different parking space. It drove there by itself, via a trip to Halfords with @dome and @Lacquer Peel in the passenger seats. With the new glow plugs in it and the new battery in there too, it fires up with barely two turns of the starter. What was really surprising was that after sitting for a week with the injector lines disconnected and the entire atmosphere leaking into the fuel system, all I did was run the glow plugs and crank it. Two turns, and it barked into life. What a fucking trooper. I have yet to sort the non-functioning (but clicking from the switches) windows, and the heater vents that don't change direction. Still. It's no longer a paperweight, it's a functional vehicle. Does anybody want a spaceship Civic? Glad it's running happy again man. They really are the BEST starters/runners I've ever know. Even on 100% chip fat. What's the craic with the honda? Asking for a fat Geordie friend. davehedgehog31, Lacquer Peel and barefoot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Honda is a 2.2 diesel with 144k and an MOT until November and I'd like fifteen hunner pounds for it. It comes complete with the classic spaceship Civic crashy ride.

dome Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 It started great. Switching off, with the stop solenoid vacuum pipe missing, was another thing entirely 😂 Lacquer Peel, jaypee, Jim Bell and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
