Amen to that. This is why we prefer to buy un-modded Zeds. And then we mod them :) Best thing is to document the mods so the next owner has some...
pmac That will defs not buff out OK. Feeling your pain mate, so much $ and grit. Darn. RIP Zed.
We do love solving puzzles around here, you need to tell us more please :) So, in the space of 1 day you went from sad to happy by changing the...
Edit - I should have said EGR disable, rather than delete. Sorry for the confusion guys. Or you could just unplug the EGR valve electrical...
For anyone else tackling an EGR delete on a TT - Short version, you can leave that ugly hunk of metal where it is. On an older TT engine, you'll...
Thanks for reporting back mate. It's nice to get closure on Tech problems.
Yep, I've danced that dance many times before my Zed days. Have found and re-soldered some cracked solenoid terminal joins. Better to take the...

How'd you go with this NI85, got a Hollywood ending yet?
Lunch break - sandwich in one hand, spanner in the other. Aah the memories. PS, even new brake fluid tastes like panther piss, just a couple of...
I totally get that. Sometimes we need to get a bit agricultural with things to wake them up from a long sleep. But it seems the OP has already...
Great advice mate. Add to that, when you start working on one car - be careful of the "while you're at it, you might as well..." syndrome....
Hub dyno, cool. Ever seen the internal workings of a hub dyno? Here's some pics from 2012 of a portable rig. No covers on it [IMG] Taking the...
336.3 Roentgens. Not terrible.
Great pics ryzan. I love how the moon seems to be peeking over the top of the tree to get a better look. The driving lights are so James Bond....
Ryzan I'm old enough to get that. Rural upbringing, think farm machinery as well as cars. Lucas was the go to but failures were common back then....
