Probably didnt help you when it came to MOT time.....

And HOW did you mistake exhaust blowing for gearbox whine!

Get that other one rebuilt!

Funnily enough, it wasn't loose at MOT time :confused:

I have been hooning lots recently (trying to run the RedEx though the tank, and let a few mates have a drive of the car) so that's probably put a lot of stress on the bolts

Will get some rod and cut it down to size.

And, I've not no idea! It genuinely shocked me when I tightened the bolt on the manifold (far right corner) and the whine went away! It's not come back since so had to have been the manifold! Very weird. If you want to come have a listen just to clarify, feel free.

I must be easily forgettable.

You've shrunk to a shadow of your former self dude, think you must have turned side-on and hence disappeared from view

BTW, you ever stray over to Bolton? Could have sworn you passed me on the A666 a few weeks ago but couldn't see who was driving....

Only sometimes, however if it was a few week ago I was on holiday.

Probably

What's the postcode of the pub?

agw_01 · 15 Mar 2008 at 00:22

First pub is HX6 4RH. Turnpike Inn.

We usually meet at J18 of the M62 though.

Unless you weren't asking about the meet, in which case...

You were driving the Saxo

loltim · 15 Mar 2008 at 00:40

Aye google maps says its half an hour quicker to go A15 > M180 > M18 > M62 than A57 and out the back of Sheffield. My geography does indeed suck

Scenery would be better on my route though?
