Cheers mate, already picked up a rebuild kit. Figured if I take out the pump, I may aswell do the timing belt...if I'm doing that I should also do the oil pump....oh, and why not drop the gearbox and do the rear main seal also...
At least the car was free haha
Thank God I have another car to go surfing in.
haha yeah, I did always want that SIII with a TDI dropped in it, but a turbo diesel Toyota with less than 200K was given to me, free of charge. No problems so far, except the leaky pump...which I blame on the 5hitty Australian low-sulphur diesel more than anything else
^^^^^^
Would prefer a Toyota with 200k on the clock than a new landrover anyday. Had a landrover once, used to call it a loungerover coz it was so comfortable. If only the damn thing would actually work....sad thing is I sold it for a jeep to get better reliability and I bet you can guess how that ended up. Am now a Toyota owner.
Well, resealed the injector pump this morning. All seams good...
Looks like a week of surfing is still on the cards for me
How can this be true? I've just been outside getting my quiver together.... and there's no surf?!
But SB's forecast is for 3+ metre swell tomorrow!
I want a refund!!
sailed at 4.30 yesterday to score one of those mythical waves that hardly ever works only to get there and find the swell was not doing its bit had an pic session not far from there nearly perfect left and right pits for three + hours no one out till lunch
Fat Burgers at Trigg... plenty of mals out. Party wave with six or seven on it, but it didn't matter as you had to go straight to keep going...
4m Tiger just cleared leighton, i had been in for a swim. Im glad i felt the need to get out of the way of the SUP newbies when i did so.
