Little workshop of horrors
Re: Little workshop of horrors
Yea truck was full loaded with avgas big twin steering 8x4 FYH for a couple of weeks we weren’t allowed to do basically any welding in the workshop as it was full while we worked on it think it had 18t of fuel on board. Driver reckons he sucked up a bit of the seat cover when it went off stopped and blocked up the only bridge on and off an island

Wow my first words were the same as vlads. I know diesels don't like dribbly injectors but that is extreme.

So I’ve got a VS Grange that’s been in storage for a while and I’ve recently got it out, had old fuel and ran with a miss, added fresh fuel and pulled the plugs for a look, I found three different part number NGK plugs fitted to it, FFS....

well if it had aftermarket seats with wood blocks and self tappers holding them it, the spark plug mismatch will be the tip of the iceberg.
I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.
