Re: New Addition to the family
fuck its been a while sicne i have upgraded this thread. Nothing really changed thats all.
Today i got it a new wof, so its legal for another 6 months, had a cunt of a time to get it to pass though. It failed on the handbrake low on the left rear, i installed new pads, that didnt fix it, i decided to pull the caliper off pull the piston out of it clean it up and rebleed the brakes at the rear. it not works and the rear wheels lock when you pull the handbrake FINALLY. i was angry earlier tho really thinking of kickong in a door or something when it wouldnt work. oh well im glad its over
Re: New Addition to the family

its a fairmont and yes it doesnt go either, ill fix it next week and sell it for mum so i can park my car out of the rain when i move to mums
It still runs shitty, like hesitating and stuff and its no where near as fast as my accord with the fucked smokey motor . When i come into some money im going to check out why i only have 125psi on cyl 1 and 190psi on the rest ... has to be a burned valve... right??!?!?!?! doesnt use oil or coolant no smoke
