Some research on the net it seems the kit is crap, what do we think using Dinitrol
Cavity wax.
It's for the inner cills.

Loads still to do, will try to get ready for the German show but we will see. I still have a few odds and sods to do on the E30 before i put it up for sale.

Rubber hose to join the fuel pipes is fine BUT ideally you need to flare the ends of the pipe.

MOT today,well sort of the tester aborted after letting the car run for 20 minutes saying the temp was a quarter off the Red
We did do a full coolant change last night and fully bled the system, when I got it home I let it run for half an hour and the temp went up to the same level, I then turned it off, then turned on the ignition and the electric fan kicked in with the revs increasing on there own,this took it down to half way immediately .
Is the tester taking the piss?

Why does the MOT gimp need to run it for twenty minutes is what I'd be asking? Mine goes in the with engine running, emission stick put up the jacksy, does the test, switches it off. Runnimng for no more than 5 minutes. Even if it was cold I don't see why it should be run for more than ten minutes?

Just go back and give him a slap. :D
