We were going to take the van, but it needed a new clutch, garage took the engine out, and there were loads of little problems which are taking a long time to fix, like the new sub frame was cracked. And the salon is leaking loads of water from the water pump area and as ive got uni exams at the moment I don't have time to fix it.

Oh that sucks! Decided that Dads mini needs new floors but trying my best to patch it up just for now to get it through the MOT! New floors from M-Machine soon though as they fall to bits when you look at them!

Gutted mate, it was the other end of the fuel pipe annoyed with the mechanic you would have thought he would have checked it all. Now gonna cost another £35 but at least it's only one problem for now...

Managers are like pigeons, they fly in, **** over everything you do, and leave just as fast as they came.

And often don't have a clue about the subject they're moaning/lecturing you about. :) I know the feeling. And yes, turn up 15 mins late, makes excuses, and leaves 1hr 30 mins early on a regular basis.

Hi guys, does anyone know of a place near Tewkesbury Glos that would steam clean or degrease my complete engine as I am going to replace some gaskets and seals and then re-paint it, Thanks in advance for any help.

Buy some gunk, some paint brushes and take your time. Steam cleaning won't de-grease, it just removes road grime.

spot on, although with being rather too gappy along the rear quarter as well. Still I'm going to be sore in the morning finishing up welding and re-skinning a door with a cold.
