Walshy day on Tuesday - can't wait!

Post by dezzy » Sun Mar 25, 2007 11:18 pm

I'm off down south tomorrow, along with Ross, Craig and Scott, for a Walshy day on Tuesday. Can't wait! :D Almost as excited as when I first got the car! :D

Looks like we're going to have some great weather for the drive down too. 8) Obviously the motorway bit will be dull and boring, but we're going via Dan's so we'll be having a nice wee blast on the way down there via some nice twisties. 8) :drive

...lets just say i have not managed to promote the S1 cause to craig, scott and dezzy

just home. (without a car!)
had the worst luck possible for Monday and Tuesday...

1. puncture
2. brake lights failure
3. Broke down 6 times on the way to Epping
4. Missed about an hour of the walshy day as i has to file down my wheel arches due to my ride height
5. Broke down twice during the day.
6. Finally gave in on the way out of the airfield and called the RAC
7. Car recovered to Judes this morning.

:roll:

All in all (my luck aside) it was a cracking few days which i would like to do again, but i'm sure Dezzy will be back on Friday to update all....

...now away to upload photos and videos :thumbsup

hope not - its as if it was the fuel pump - engine kept cutting out like it was starved of fuel.
On the way down south, it kept happening at around 25/26 litres from full, so when i filled it back up to 35l it went away again. I dont know if that was just coincidence.
But that theory was blown away when it happened going round the walshy made circuit at 31 litres...

i was just glad i got through most of the walshy day though

From what i hear the fuel pump replacement is a PITA...??

try running/driving with the fuel cap off to see if it makes any difference.
