I'm more worried about where Midas attempted to drill out the spot welds and have left about a million holes in the rear arches and smashed the shit out of it with a hammer for good measure...

i removed all my sound deadening when it was cold so i just chipped it off, then the little bits left over i used a filler scraper (little plastic thing) heated the tar up and scraped it with the filler scraper and then wiped it down with white spirits, came off easy as you like!

i have been trying to solve problems without money, im not doing an amazing job!


Ive heard things not nice about regal tho.....


Who can u borrow an amal valve off? Mine is under scrutiny as i think it may be shite

If you can borrow one that may solve it, has matt looked at it yet?

Has it been disconnected or messed with recently?
