"What happens if you apply rust remover to a Lada?

The Lada disappears. "

Made a bit of a break through. It appears to be an ECU earthing issue. I found it by pluuging the diagnostic leads, it ran fine no light full power. Not quite sure what the problem is the two earths to the ECU are fine and its bolted to the chassis but for now i have grounded the earth pin in the di...

Hi Just wondered if any of you guys were familiar with SPI fiats? Specifically the 899cc Cinqucento. Its the girlfriends we've had it about a month and a few times when cold the engine light has come on and there has been a drop in power. More recently this has resulted in it stalling, but we came t...

Love that!

He wedged it between the tyre and th...

Hi I'm in the middle of replacing my rear bike tyre and can't get it to seal on the rim. Im only using basic tools and at the minute only have the LADA pump.
IS there any way of getting it to seal without a compressor or lighter fluid ?
Thanks Daniel.b

Love this!

well... the other day bought this http://www.thewelderswarehouse.com/Welding/Clarke_135TE.html (not from this site but machinemart won't load) And today attempted welding for the first time, a few bits of mild steel 2-3mm thick.
