  • Talks the talk for 20 pages, can't seem to take the engine out... keeps blaming the Clio?

  • Sounds like you need another Fabia.                   A nice bathroom green one.

It's worth studying. Possibly the first 'social media' transmitted disease in humans.

 

Seems to affect the visionaries first and then eventualy works it's way on to the stubbornly practical.

That's the one! My soon to be daily driver

would offer to take a look at it before it comes up to you, but i havnt the time atm. 

 

IIRC it wasnt too bad engine was a bit rattly but thats normal for them as the chain goes a bit slack (but never enough to skip a tooth) doesnt have A/C but IMO this engine shouldnt as it was an after thought which means the aux belt tensioner is really damn awkard, whereas the non-AC lump is just tensioned by pivoting the Alternator (old fashioned way wooo!)

Woo.... one more back on the road.



Whoever finds the unicorn is going to be some kind of God among Fantasy Green.
