Don't know either Maybe something to do with a Zombie attach or monsters, looks like they've put claw marks in it.

My mate sent me this picture while he was at Pleasure Wood Hills theme park, it was part of a Halloween display!!

Been cutting up a few trees the last couple of days, Colorado (Mr 2.0 CD Moore) will be benefiting from the wind fall wood !!!

my chainsawing skills may come in handy!

Welcome buddy

thats a brill photo.....if only you had got wheel marks in the sand as though it had driven up to the waters edge. Here's a little teaser for your challenge: ( I have the Top Gear white challenge envelope here) :ugeek: http://i335.photobucket.com/albums/m456/Cavalier342/Diecast%20pics/beach020.jpg D...

look forward to seeing some pics...

check the panel sealant isn't letting water through, I have a bit of a leak under the dash in the top left hand corner through the sealant.

I'm a Greenkeeper at a Golf Club.

That looks a nice one......in the right colour too

Hey guys.....I may be up for this one if my Cav is back on the road.

cleaned out my boot today, seems to still be rust free, even in the corners. A rarity these days!

I looked at the Mk 2 Cavalier and found the following
13S also used on Astra mk2
16S and
18E

1) Tighten to 25 Nm / 18 lb ft
2) 60º
3) 60º
4) 60º
5) Warm up engine then further 30º

yep thats sounds something like what i did on some vauxhall in the past.

Thanks very much for all the info, I want to get the head back on this weekend, I asked about doing it warm or cold because i still need to get a cam belt kit, as its a done cold, i can at least get it tightened up..... I'm sure I did a head gasket on a 1.3 mk1 astra yrs ago where the last tighten u...

Just a quick one, does the car have to be at running temp to do a final tightening down of the head bolts on a 1.8, or are all the stages done when the engine is cold?

This is one to watch.....Great work matey

I'm looking forward to seeing the new Superman film

People who drive around on narrow country lanes like the're in a rally, thinking that there'll be nothing around the next blind bend...ie this weekend.....OldTwat in a BMW, nearly had a head on!!! good job i was only doing about 15mph he must have been doing 40ish.....he didn't half get a mouth full...

thank you soooo much barney

Many thanks for your help guys

Had my cylinder head skimmed the other day and the company that did it also supplied me with a gasket set, but there are a few gaskets that i'm unsure where they go. So know someone on here will know. http://i747.photobucket.com/albums/xx116/gazza1701-a/2013-05-12170140.jpg http://i747.photobucket.c...

The only Trek I never got into was DS9, loved Voyager and thought it was the best of all the series.

Nice one Pie....

I too used a tea towel, but only to wipe off excess grinding paste

If I were a real man, I wouldn't have used a place mat when regrinding my valve seats at the dinning table!

Saw the New Star Trek film last night in 3D Imax....I thought it was fantastic, much better than the last one in my opinion! Benedict Cumberbatch makes a great baddie and steals the show. There's also some good stuff for the hardened trek fans to spot too. Loved it from start to finish. Anyone else ...
