M50 running problems..

[Jon_Bmw]

Got an inlet air leak somewhere tho...

Was that for the emissions!

[Jhonno]

Sadly not.. Found one whilst it was there, but there is another somewhere as its running lean on idle

Passed emissions with 77ppm (limit 3500) and 0.07% CO2 iirc..



It was also a god send knowing the tester

The techs were loving it! Couple thought I was slightly mad though..

[OBs]

Its MOT'd!!

Handling is awesome tbh.. Not had it understeer, or oversteer, just grips and goes

What suspension set up have you got Jhonno?

[old_skool]

Blimey mate. On the road, you must be chuffed to bits - well done!

Which dealership did you take it to?

Yeah tell me about it!! Insurance docs didnt get e-mailed through in time so will be taxed in the morning..

Under its own steam as well!!

Went to the old man's place

Absolute stunner in with her rents buying a used car, was gonna try sex pesting but she disappeared

[d6dph]

It's not rape, It's surprise sex

Well done mate, I'm please for you. been a long time getting mobile again!

(Went to old mans dealer, With an ashtray full of used £20's )

[Jhonno]

Funniest thing is.. After it took so long for the S50 swap.. The M50 swap ended up taking <2 weeks from buying the engine

[glenn]

well happy for you dan.
now you can enjoy racking up some summer miles in it
happy days

[Jhonno]

Cheers guys!!

Having been without it for 2yrs its a little mixed emotions right now due to the deviation from the original plan, BUT I can drive it again, check everything else is ok, take my time with the S50, and have some fun in the mean time!! Plus I guess wont do me any harm to get used to it with 200bhp..

Bit annoyed I couldnt tax it tonight, wanna go and play

[Jhonno]

Turns out it cruises at about 90/100 quite nicely (kmh of course).. Oops. Still.. Only stuck £25 of Super in it, and thats still going, and ive driven to Brighton, and went out for a 50min fun drive last night, and couple of other fun runs. Economy is an unexpected bonus..

Roll on the S50

Are you in colchester over the weekend big man?

I'm working over at the other shop tomorrow night so can take a detour on the way home with your lip.

[Jhonno]

No i'm in the B'town atm dude.. If its not in your way, I'll see if I can pick it up from you next time im on my way through if you want

[d6dph]

No not in the way at all mate, Spud enjoys chewing on it
