Digifant systems

Well I got the thing throught the test today, but by more foul methods than fair. I disconnected the breather going to the induction manifold thus creating a massive air leak, then wound up the idle to make it run. It ran, but disgracefully, with NO power, BUT, the emissions went down to 0.2. Just glad they did not look under the bonnet! I don´t suggest anyone use this method of passing MOT´s, but my circumstances were somewhat unusual. Once I got round the corner, I put it all back to where it was. Next job, pull the head off and make a decision. Will be doing that this weekend when I go home.
Cheers.

I live in a tiny village in Guadalajara, a stones throw, (literally) from the Madrid province. Madrid is about half an hour away by car. Where in Marbella are you? The outlaws have property in San Pedro de Alcantara.

who are the outlaws? im actually just outside marbella itself just accross the road from sierra blanca. Ive heard of Guadalajara before but dunno why.

[DarnPB]

Outlaws=wifes parents, ie the inlaws.
Guadalajara is to the east of Madrid. Outbound on the A2 towards Zaragoza and Barcelona. Incidently, the A2 is one of the most dangerous roads in Spain. Lost a friend on it two years ago.

The N340 is the most dangerous stretch of road in europe its nicknamed "calle de la muerte" or road of death to you and me. They all drive like nutters down here and totally fcuked out of their skulls on all sorts hence the massive death toll! Its terrible sorry for your loss mate. San pedro is well known to me my mate lives up in benavista. So you been out in Puerto Banus recently? or do you prefer to keep the inlaws away from you?
