foxdie Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 My computer at home is fucked, and haven't been able to get online til i've arrived back at work. On my way down to power engineering in the morning for a day hard tunning. On way down the, Big oil explosion, and smoke covering the 3 lanes of m25 Pull over to the hard shoulder make a quick exit, poped the rear hood, and watched as oil literally poored outta the bottom of my car Finally got breakdown truck picked me and Shaun (Super_Shaun) after waiting 2 hours and took me too my local garage Went down on Saturday moring to find out the damage. Fortunately the engine is actually untouched, tis was the drive shaft came completely outta the gear box. Pissing gear box oil all over the place Well tis cheaper than a new engine, as it can simply be pushed back in and have another clip and rubber bung fitted. But by which time i had already had my heart set on a another engine, Lightened, balanced, forged pistons and racing manifold. unfortuantely it wont be needed Well apologies for not making it down to southend, so pissed off, soooo looking forward to it all month, but tis typical (Friday 13th ) Hopefully get the motor back late next week. Not happy with her now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
