len is resident pervert - he'll appear (this is purely my honest opinion and is in no way a reflection of anyone elses opinion, but is going to happen. Chuff however is harmless although he's about 8million foot wide.)

Cheers guys!

I have this funny image of a trenchcoated flasher darting around the forum waiting to nip into a thread and......:grin:

Oh well, each to their own  :grin:

Here's my to do list:

- Clean wiper stalk contacts and hope to solve recurring intermittent wiper problem - if not I will need advice!
- lacquer new paint
- sand rust off brake pipes & waxoyl
- fit new air filter housing

I suspect I've dredged up some crud from my petrol tank - my car died on me twice the other night (in the pissing rain). It's not long had a new coil for a similar problem which, whenever I tried to accellerate, the car simply lost all power. This time it happened shortly after I ran very low on petrol and I had my foot off the accellerator both times in this instance. After giving it a bit of welly it does restart, misfires for about a mile then completely normal again. Nothing showing on VAG com. I can't think of any other reason. Just had new sparks, rotor, leads, coil, battery under 1 yr, recetly given full service (inc. oil/fuel filters). Hoping it was just a clogged injector & wondering whether I should run a cleaner through the fuel system in the hope that that solves it?

Get rid of your rear lights!

Whilst I understand your passionate, knee-jerk sentiment toward said (vile) lights (agreed), I felt I needed some kind of waterproof housing to contain the bare bulbs therefore I felt your implication that I simply rip them off as fast as possible (an understandable reaction) and throw them away in carefree abandon a little too rash and a tad impractical  :tongue: :grin: Don't worry I've finally ventured into the spider filled shed to retrieve the original lights - they are back on.

Yeah you'll fit right in here! Len has gold wheels and blue rear lights  :lipsrsealed:

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08

Gold wheels  :sick:
Ah well, still beats my rusty steel wheels  :grin:

Was wrong about petrol clog. Having just broken down again this morning I ripped off the distributor cap in a fit of rage, (whilst screaming "goddammit what is wrong with you car"!) only to find myself covered in oil  :rolleyes: The whole thing was just covered in oil. The rotor arm is flopping around like a useless bastard. Electrics all covered in metal fillings where the spring & spindle have 'oiled' itself loose and scraped around the inside of the cap. Only replaced the rotor arm a month ago so did not expect to find this mess!

Can't locate a 2nd hand part atm. Rang local VW dealership - £105 for a flipping distributor. Sod that. Right, I better toddle off the the parts section.  :sad:
