MOT yesterday. Passed no advisories. In a year it has cost me a crank pulley and a water pump and 2 new tires so very happy :D :D .On the journey to my new job it is returning 300 miles on £50 worth of diesel, so very happy there as well :) :) This is probanly the best motor I have ever owned.
Light travels faster than sound.This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Tescos shop or tescos fuel station?

And fair enough, anyone know if the izusu 1.7td in my cavalier is direct or indirect? Also what happens if the rings gum up as shortly if anything it'll only help seal them thus reduce the effects of engine wear?

Picked the exhaust up off the field it fell into and shoved it into the boot. Then drove home from Northampton to Preston :evil: :evil: :evil:

Fortunately it was only the entire tail pip ... but it does mean I need a new back box as well.
