    Bits And Bobs

    i went into my local parts shop other week i have an account with them and got talking to one of the staff who always serves me and got on about my alternator kicking wrong voltage and price to recon qouted so he said hang on a minute looked on his computer found me an alternator at another shop only one left on shelve so asked how much when he told me i could not beleive it he said £25+vat brand new still in box exchange for old one so i got it two days later now fitted and working fine so lesson to us all if ya paly with anyone in a parts shop ask if they have anything discontinued in stock worth a try you never no.

  21. also remeber the weight of the trailer with car on the trailer i hired was 900kg unladen with the car on was rough guess about 1800kg you do feel the difference i travelled to wales for mine so it was a good distance but straight roads so was not too bad just make sure you got a good big ish engined car to pull it with. i pressume its a trailer your using? i got a zafira 1.8 so did not notice the weight too much.
  22. hi i have a 1.6 zetec for sale it snapped the timing belt roughly done about 90,000 not stripped it yet to see what damage but sure only valves will have been bent but can check if any one interested wanting £50 it is just a bare engine

    Manual Choke

    any one no if i can get a manual choke for the weber dgas carb as the diaphram is destroyed over time on the auto choke.found some on ebay but cant justify paying £70 for one.
  24. main thing is make sure you got proper straps to fit over minimum two wheels to secure them down i secured one front o/s wheel then one rear n/s wheel and seemed fine on a car trailer.not sure what to check on car i just checked basic stuff on mine when picked it up i.e engine ran clutch worked and brakes no oil leaks and bolts missing lol hth
