Title: isnt it nice when
Post by: messenjah on 05 October 2010, 20:07
you work on your car and at the end of the day you have actually completed all the little jobs you set out to do.

today i only had a small list
 diagnose and solve problem of rattly passenger seat.
change plugs dizzy cap rotor arm.
change the rad and top and bottom hoses
figure out why the front grill is so loose and sort it
change the fuel filter
clean the interior

and each job i did just made the car that little bit better it was all easy stuff the hardest bit was cycling to the scrappy to get the bits (10 miles)

ill get some pics up and a project thread started on friday once ive given it a wash

Yep It rebuilds your faith in the car & in your ability to do jobs...
