New Wasteland Wa Topic

[Beyond Blue R33]

thanks but im busy next few weekends.
work this weekend, camping in walpole following week then work next weekend

Man I love Walpole. Mum n dad's friends own the caravan park on the inlet. Funny Walpole stories. Me and my mate Jim rented a old van down there when I was 19, he's about 6'8" and 140kgs below zero temps. the whole bed on his end of the van collapsed snapped and dropped him on the floor outside he went crook and went to sleep in the landy with the engine on and heater running. I had beanie 2 t-shirt 2 jumpers 2 track pants 2 socks sleeping bag and sheets off all the beds. Wind was blowing in the hole like a hurricane and I nearly froze to death. Last time we went for Christmas. Took the gravel track down to the small rocky beach off the inlet. Family got out the car and charged to the beach. I opened the drivers side door got out and looked down at the massive f**king snake that reared it's head up and trapped me between it and the car. Just stood still for ages till it settled down then f**king bolted. Dad and I weren't catching much so took the dingy all the way out the inlet into the ocean. The outboard shit itself and we had to row the whole way back took hours, arms were burning for days. Have fun Trev. Still one of the best spots in w.a

Perfectly easy fix, hilarious, evaporation. Low priority. Funny as had a good laugh.

I need a set of injectors to fit and do 1000kms and retest the oil.

+1 on beer after welding in this weather, nothin industrial like you bit still 2mm plates to 0.6 body steel.....

Did you mig or tig it? Butt weld with backing?

The plates come as direct fit so all we gotta do is clean and weld. Been running a small bead on the 0.6 first then turning the mig up to get a nice weld between the bead and the 2mm plate. Hot work inside the cars and u have to be careful u dont set fire to them lol

[t_revz]

well that was hot...

 

beer is helping now

[t_revz]

as unbelievable as it may sound.... 

 

i might drive the skyline this week...  i cant even remember which month it last moved but the dust suggests 4 months or so

[t_revz]

gonna try driving it and after each drive bleeding down the fuel pressure to see if it stops getting into the oil.

Leaky injector?

[shoey85]

Here is our paint issue it’s hard to see but it looks like it was sanded with 80 grit before spraying

[t_revz]

Leaky injector?

Potentially. They don’t leak cold but maybe when hot

Almost out of ideas.

I'd be taking it back to the painter,  you payed good money to have the car painted properly. Maybe take the car to other paint shops and ask their opinion on what the cause would be (in their experience) before you go back, so that you have an understanding.  

I wouldn't accept anything but perfection, if that's what you were paying for.
