G'day Ppl, Does anyone know what the symptoms for WATER in Fuel are? The car drives fine then at no particular time, it will loose power and momentum for only about 5-10 Seconds. Then it is fine for another 5 minutes to .....Geeps, Half an Hour or so. I am thinking of doing the old...

G'Day Chookens, I have a 98 Statey with 215/60R16 Continental ContiComfortContact 1 Quite happy with them, and in the wet, though most driving is Highway.......If you could call the GORE Highway that:bang: Contis and I go back to my Motorcycle days:D

This is what I use when cleaning out Holes in Concrete, where I bolt down Walls. Suprising the size of some of the bits one can drag up with the Vacuum. BIG Tick:yeah:

Or try this with a Plastic Sleeve on the Rod. It won't try to latch on to every Ferric thing else on the way down.

My Thoughts about the Father and 14 year old are Politically incorrect. So best not air here. As for the karting Footwork.......:whistling Don't care

Sneaky Talegate the Double B at night WITHOUT your Front HEAD, or Parking lights. Then you do not have to warry about his seeing you:whistling

New Leads G'day People, Mine is a 98 VS Statey. Felt like it was driving over Tram Tracks when doing 95-100 and start to go up a SLIGHT incline.:bang: Replaced the Spark Puug LEADS to-day, and GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!!! Cleared the Transmission Thumping, ALL Gone.:D:yeah: This one was...

G'day Ppl, I know I will regret this:- How does one REFILL an Auto Gearbox????? The Manual just says:- "Lower the vehicle to the ground and refill the transmission with the specified amount and grade of new oil" HOW??? and where do I fill??? Surely not down the Dipstick...

500,000 plus G'Day, Are these 500,000 Plus Kilometre Cars, City Running, Country Miles, or Where do they do the Milage?

24Months, Started a couple [few?] of times; and a VERY Short drive as well:whistling

My Car is coming out of Storage after quite a few Months. What should I do? Change/Check all Fluids, inc Differential. New battery Tyres to correct Pressure. Slow drive initially................................. :whistling What else?

Thanks Ppl Yes, And now I'm All A'Glae Happy :yeah::yeah:

Should have looked further. Pulled the Washer Pump/Motor out and just now the Rubber Filter. WOW!!!!:whistling:whistling Looked like a GIANT Goobie...........A Whopping BIG Snottie hanging out of the Filter. Removed it.....Yes:D Picked it out. In the Wash Water container was a whole...

G'day Ppl, The Windscreen Washer Pump Motor now does nothing but WHIRRRR!!!!:wax::wax: Are these replaceable or How about REPAIRABLE? It looks to be well and truly Glued/Sealed:bang: Oh! 1998 VS Statey:D

Attitude Good Morning People, A pleasent day to you all. Do I sense an attitude her abouts? No, not you Immortality ;) Is it me:bang: or is it someone else:whistling.....Hmmmm????

G'Day Ppl, This link might be of help to some, as long as you have Basic tools:thumbsup: Cannot find similar here. Bosch_repair Yes! I know it is from the Range Rover Site:D Then, I found it on a BMW Site. Some of the Beemer Ppl do get their Pinkies Dirty , some of the...

What else???? Might check what else that's been done? Else you might be:bang:

C'Mon imM, Don't you start too! I've just had a go at a Bimmer driver:bang: Sucked out all the info he could about an intermitant fault; then goes to his mechanic with the info. I reckon he's told his mechanic and taken the credit for all the information he got off of the ECCA...

Matty, Did you use it during Winter? Not using it often speeds up its demise.

Yep, very much so, Now Leds Drop a lot of different Voltages, Not like when I used them. 0.6 for Silicone AND 0.2 for Germanium Now they are nearly anything, same for Current draw.

Where to start? If I were doing what you intend to do.....Which I wouldn't:whistling I would go for One Resistor for EACH Led. From memory 680Ohm resistor comes to mind per Led. You have some maths to do:- Leds USED to drop 0.6 of a Volt AND required 20mA to give their Output. [ The...

What have you done so far? Other than check all the fuses. Have you removed the Control unit yet?

Might help Sik888, This might help:thumbsup: There is another link in this link. Been there:bang: used Leds and Dropping Resistor...Works Really WELL!:yeah: Still have the radio display to do

or a 6" Steel Rule OR Paint Scraper, just like the one I use on the BBQ

Check 4 Current Draw Have you a MultiMeter? I Prefer Digital Meters which are not sensitive to reversed Polarity. Red is POSITIVE Black is Negative [Earth] OK, if so...... Remove the Lead from the +ve terminal of the Battery. --- (or the -VE) Connect the MultiMeter on 20AMP Setting to...

Hey!! N_a_a_f I think I am having a go at him :whistling and the other 'drivers' who chop infront of Ppl including Trucks and then INDICATE!

Why???? Why not wait until they had gone past? Would you be one of these Ppl who pull out in fromt of a B-Double, leaving little gap, and then Brake severely? OH!! Then indicate when all is done:bang: PS We still have them out here, but mostly MUCH Older drivers........

G'Day Ppl, Has anyone on here any clues for getting a Pallet, with Motor and "Bits", from Sydney to Toowoomba? Left it a bit late in the week, eh.:bang: Ta anyway.:thumbsup:

Yes! It was a coincidence, One I didn't need.

Ta Guys, It has 230,000Klicks, but they were; and still are, Country travelling 95% 5% smaller country towns, perhaps even less than 5% Lamps and Globes so far, the Radio (Lack of) Illumination is the worst:bang:
