  M6 toll road speed trap
Posted by: JohnC - 13 Feb 2007, 17:47 - Forum: Off topic talk, general chat etc - Replies (8)

I came up the M6 toll road last night (Monday, >9pm), i was fortunate that I had slowed to go into the services, however the police had setup a speed trap on the services bridge. 0.5m north were 3 patrol cars with a queue of motorists on the hard shoulder.

  Bring back the daily digest
Posted by: JohnC - 13 Feb 2007, 17:39 - Forum: Forum Errors or Suggestions - Please Report Here - Replies (1)

I may be in the minority but I got a great deal of benefit from the Yahoo daily digest e-mail.

Nearly all non-work related web addresses are unreachable from the office, i used to look forward to getting my daily dose of UK DMC updates.

Is there anyway to generate something similar?

  DeLorean News issue 36
Posted by: Phil Peters - 13 Feb 2007, 14:03 - Forum: Latest DOC News - Replies (19)

Hi everyone,

DeLorean News issue 36 is coming along nicely and we've already had some excellent efforts in designing a chav DeLorean picture. I'll keep the picture a surprise, but one effort so far comprises of:

1) Wheels from a Lamborghini Gallardo
2) Front spoiler from a Lotus Esprit
3) Headlights from my own BMW 3-Series Coupe
4) Foglights drawn on by hand
5) Private number plate created in Microsoft Paint
6) Bonnet scoop from a Subaru Impreza (also used for roof scoop)
7) Wing vents from a Lotus Elise
8 ) Rear spoiler from a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII
9) Neon washer jets, door sill, and underlighting drawn on by hand
10) Brand stickers on front wing taken from relevant websites

:!: :!:

Anyone else got one to send in?!

  Stiff gear shift
Posted by: Rottbott - 12 Feb 2007, 21:07 - Forum: 4 - Transmission - Manual & Automatic - Replies (8)

I was driving along the other day, shifted to 4th and noticed the stick was unusually stiff to move into gear. Coming to a roundabout I went through third and second, by which time it was really really stiff and I had to force it into second. At that point I didn't dare shift any more in case it locked up entirely so I drove home in second (those long gear ratios have their uses) and turned it off.

Forced it into neutral and it turns out that it goes ok into 1/3/5, but is really stiff to get into 2/4 and doesn't feel like it has 'locked in' to the slot properly.

I'm hoping it's just a linkage thing, not the synchro or something in the box itself. If it's relevant I did have the pivot bolt in the linkage snap a while ago leaving me with only third, but replacing it sorted that and actually made it feel much nicer and more precise than it did before.

Help!

  Helicoil - knackered thread on engine block.
Posted by: Barson - 12 Feb 2007, 14:08 - Forum: 1 - Engine - Replies (7)

What's the difference between an M8 1MM and M8 1.25MM helicoil thread?

Don't say size :oops: :lol: !

Is it the width of the coil piece, i.e. the difference between the external diameter and internal diameter?

for what reason would there be two different size, is it just dependant on application?


cheers me dears
:wink:
Dave.
