Its very bad yeah, the suspension has been raised right up since i did the first shaft, to get a more factory driveshaft horizontal angle, i now just want to know if when looking from above the clock angle betwixt diff and hub is noticeably different for some reason?.. Would appreciate it thanks.

Ok, this will be more useful if you have a CAI fitted. If you could, stand at the N/S wheel looking into the bay, hold the camera directly above the N/S driveshaft and take a picture straight down. I'm trying to gauge the angle between gbox and hub. The car has broken 3 driveshafts in 3 days... You can appreciate the urgency. Thanks.

Quickest way to drain a tank of fuel?

OK, so if i remove the black metal cover, i should be able to lift out that plastic cap with the plug on and be into the tank? -

Thought these were anti-syphon? -
Guys i need to empty the content of my cars fuel tank, which fortunately should only be circa 7 litres or so. There's some horrible substance in there that is not allowing the car to work. Whats the quickest way to get it all out? I can't sit priming the pump all day with the feed disconnected... Thanks!

Quick pleeeeease if anyone can help, need to get the line off now
-
Car i get it off somewhere in the engine pay though
-
Anyone got some useful info or pictures relating to where my low pressure fuel line is please? Car won't turn over :(

Do this. A pipe is a pipe in this instance, it makes no difference. Bang a good filter on there and you're away. Think mine cost £50 Plus a good filter. Takes a couple minutes to fit (i removed battery etc for ease, not totally necessary though) Never had any probs with wet weather as where the filter sits is in an enclosed space behind the bumper.

Anyone?... This is quite an urgent issue. Thanks. -
Octy 1 VRS Locking Wheel Nut... All the same?
Keefe posted a topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
Are all of the octy 1 vrs locking wheel nuts (i.e. the one that's splined out and requires a tool in the socket to remove it) all the same on all vrs? I.e. would a tool from another work on mine? Its a very simple design after all. I've lost mine to top off my worst week of car ownership. -
I'm in a whole world of **** now. Everything is breaking. Shaft is stuck in the hub... lower balljoing is spinning trackrod bj is spinning, cannot remove inboard end of dshaft, i'm properly knackered.
-
Yes they do and sadly i've done all of the above. Not a bit of movement :( Guess its corroded like hell...

My nearside CV boot split so today i went to get a new 'un. Stocked up ready to go and i cannot for the life in me remove the driveshaft from the hub!!!!!! Two of us have been on it for four hours and got NOWHERE. Is there more securing the shaft into the the hub than the main nut visible if you were to look in the centre of the brake disc? This is getting desperate. Thanks.
