I Love The Smell Of Petrol In The Morning!
on: March 17, 2006, 14:01:09 PM
Which is a godd thing, as I have had a petrol leak for the past week, and I work with explosives so taking it into work has been a bit of a dodgy issue :lol:

Took the day off yesterday, and swapped the leaking fuel filter.  Got covered in Shells finest, but its all good now - Eventually got the new filter in place, and no risk of fire - well, no worse than normal on a Daewoo anyway! :D

Gotta take mine off the garage tonight when I get in, on the way to work a lorry sheds its load on the road in front of me and the thing is carrying bolts and nails etc :( 3 tyres need replacing again I only just paid out just short of 300 quid for them 2 months ago :(

You should be covered by their insurance though, make sure you get four new tyres :)  :wink:

Could of used their insurance if:

1) The lorry stopped
2) The Lorry had a company name on
3) 6 other cars didnt get hit to and we all had to stop at the same time

:/ Always the same, I am off to Spain at the end of the month so there is a huge dint in the holiday money :(

Ive got a bit of a fuel leak somewhere. Going to layout a white sheet over night under the car on the flat to try and pinpoint it... Praying it aint the fuel pump. Tho to be honest the car is off the road at the end of the month regardless. So the search for a new one is going on.

I must whole heartly agree :D  :twisted: except since it become low in sulphur it not as nice as it used to be.... diesel... well it should be banned based only on its smell... reminds me of the chemical experiement when you add iron filings to an acid (pref di-protic) and mae that horrible faul eggy smell...
