I was gonna msg and ask but it's gone, sold..

Black carpet for $1000.... bargain!... :D

Gonna pull the speedo cluster out and see if I can sort this fuel needle, sommit ain't right..

Nothing to report today. I have no fuel to drive the car...lol (check needle) :D

OK thanks guys. With hindsight I guess I should've loosened em while I was doing the TM but all done now. Maybe next weekend I'll pull em out one at a time and have a look at them, prob split...

:confused:

So plugged in the 02 sensor and that P0030 has disappeared... :). Still complaining about traction control but I haven't give her a De ent drive to see if it settles. She's still idling a bit rough I reckon, and when stationary and in gear the engine is wabbling a bit too much for a car with 2...

Just seen this on Facey Marketplace.... Clear title apparently... Cheap as chips! Search Marketplace for the title if interested.

All good so far. Just first day but seems quite a cruisy company... :)

Got an hours TV then bed. Start new job in the morning. I'll leave you with this... :D

Once I'd got the TM oil in I did run it on stands in reverse and drive to try and mix the oil round the TM before I got it warm enough to check at the drain plug. About a litre came out before it dripped but yeah was out on the road straight after...

Did you not see this video...

Oh I span the rear wheels at the lights earlier lol

Nah that's plugged in, it's the 02 sensor that's unplugged. Not that it's not plugged in properly, it's simply not plugged in... :oops: The traction control switch works as in when I hit it and the cars not complaining it goes off and on, but it's spitting a dummy all the time and giving a...

Bang on! Me and my memory lol

Yeah got that but only ever needed to get in there to swap the surround...

I do but switching it off does nothing... Tomorrow I'll get that plug plugged back in and 1) the P0030 will go away and 2) she'll hopefully run smoother, which in turn will probably make it quieter. Will go for the sound / heat shield the next day.

What switch?..... Ahhhhhhhhh..... just come back to me. There's a white plug up by the passenger side header. I remember trying to plug it back in with no light do went and got my torch, and then side tracked as that ALWAYS happens to me. This plug will still be undone...

Oh and hoping this said sensor is in the engine bay just to the left of the closest exhaust bolt on the right hand header, as I hit that when undoing that bolt and broke it in half. I've temporarily glued it back on lol, but it'll be playing up whatever it's for...

The symptoms of a P0030 code vary, and a handful of problems can cause it. The first symptom is the Check Engine Light. Typically, the Check Engine Light will also come with other symptoms like a rough idle and engine problems. One of the most common symptoms of any O2 sensor issue is a problem...

Nah further back, in the middle...

I'm back clearing codes as I drive. Like every few mins. Also throwing this which I've never seen before... Rear window is misting up and the air con ain't too good. Never was tbh even with a regass but I said here once before what the air con guy said, "it's commys, they have sh*t air con...

It kinda sounds more doof doof doof if that makes sense lol, when you drive it, doesn't seem so smooth...

No more my friend, I see sense.

It's OK Losh I unblocked you... :) Ok I *think* I have issues. 1) the Stabilty control warning won't go away and I've had a fair bit of going round the block since last post. 2) If for example 1 cylinder wasn't firing it would throw a code yeah? She's idling rough I reckon and not...

Would it make THAT much difference tho? I mean, it's for soundproofing right? Or is it for heat? If heat I guess it'll have no effect on the sound but yeah just thinking... Stabilty control playing up needs to be sorted. That'll be something to do with the brakes?

OK. Firstly she seems noisier than normal and I suspect this might have something to do with it? I only just see it now the car is out of the garage and all is back together...lol but I'll get it back on next weekend. But as to driving... So she's smooth thru the gears, no vibration, but...

One last vid before test drive....

Just had to drop 10mm and then it slipped in. Done back up and... Now to get oil in and test...

Boom!!... (I hate that saying but totally apt) Now I'll have gears, but will check before I put pan back on...

EUREKA!!!! I was sliding the brown thing back and fwd and the wife said the gears were going from P, R, N, D so thought there must be some way of linking this brown thing to the cog... Need to drop the big mechanism thing and get that A into B, do up and adjust linkage and I'll be there...

If only I was that lucky. Seems it's in the right spot. From another engine pic... Damn, got all excited there. Dunno if engine needs to be running but am sure the gear indicator on the dash changes with the moves just with ignition on. I've moved the cog for want of a better word clicks...

When you see it.... There's why I have no gears....

If there's a next time (I pray there isn't) old mate said I can use one of his hoists if it's free. Top man he is... Next pic deserves its own post....

Yeah if I was doing it all the time I'd have sommit like LEX has, but I REALLY don't want to be, I have aesthetic stuff like door cards to cover and some paint work. THEN I may look into a bigger cam or even a turbo, maybe both plus supercharger... Nah, she's quick enough for me tbh..

Well from personal experience (last week) the gears showed as R, D, N on the dash without starting the engine from gear lever selection, and even then they worked albeit needed some rpm to engage. As we speak I have P and nothing else from gear selection so as I said, once the gears work I...

Not relevant to me as it's my throttle body that's tripping my low power modes but interesting all the same...
