Well, i've pushed myself to the absolute limit physically, trying to get this damn thing sorted out. So far, i've done nothing of consequence, barring an oil change. Could i get the filter off? NO. I needed to drive 73 miles (round trip), to pick up a tool that would fit on the Toyota...

JDub - is this what i'm after? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230404661609

What is it compared to the GBP?

There's no milkshake so if the HG has indeed gone, its between the water jacket and the bore.

kPa = Kilopsacals - metric unit of pressure. 100kPa = 14.5PSI or 1 Bar

If it is...i'm not too worried, as long as the HG hasn't gone between the water and oil jackets. I have a whole engine gasket set here, and a set of ARP's that i was going to use for my monster build.

Bit of an update. Thought i'd introduce you guys to a colonial favourite; Kedgerie. Normally, the recipe calls for smoked haddock, but i use slightly cheaper fish (without bones!). You'll want: Two bags of boil in the bag basmati rice (enough for 4 people) Three eggs Pollock or Cod...

Unfortunately, the weather is holding me back from doing anything - although i have a covered, concrete work area, the insane wind, and freezing rain is making working on it a distinct impossibility - doubly so seeing as i'm supposed to be taking it easy after surgery. Drove it again this...

It's sold....but at a price conforming to 'how much can i get for my soul?' - all oil/fuel/petroleum is massively taxed here. In the name of being 'green' of course. Shitty 20w50 isnt a problem (cause most of it stays on the shelf), but even 5 litres will set you back $20. The more specialised...

Well the 5w30 i have is 'Unipart' - and cost me about $40 for 5 litres. Can't get a wix filter here, i have again, a 'Unipart' one, but the Toyota one does say 'Denso' on it and doesn't look like a thailand made one. It's cold here - like, cold enough that in the mornings, theres frost on the...

14 people in here. We can has a party.

This is on the blue d/d auto, not the new red monster (the one in the buildup gallery). Oil pressure at cold, is just over 20psi, on a freshly started engine, thats been sitting overnight. Now, i know that the spec is 4.3psi on hot idle...and thats about what i have, maybe a little more -...

Heh - i rarely play any games on it - i use it more for either folding@home, or as a media extender for my 37" Samsung 1080p. The only four games i have, are: Lego Star Wars, Wipeout HD, Dead Space (which i cannot play on a controller), and Pain.

And again. But no party.

It's a parrrrr-tay.

Jeff - whats the approximate line cost of each of these items?

Update: And here we have some 75% finished cam covers!
