I've also got a fuel filter to try and sort out the whining fuel pumps, if that doesn't sort it then I'll get a new fuel pump or two for it.

I've had a set of virtually new Avon ZV7 tyres fitted in 205/60R15 flavour as my work were giving them away as the customer decided they wanted different tyres on their brand new car. Waste not want not especially when the rolling radius difference is negligible, the wider/lower profile tyre will improve handling and they were free as well as the fitting, balancing and new tyre valves.

Hopefully it will be ready to sell early next year as I've just had to fork out for a new boiler as mine is leaking in four places!

Ah well it is what it is, anyway Merry Christmas my fellow 7/900 series perverts.
Result on the tyres! Everyones favourite price! I keep thinking about a set of 205/70/15s on mine, more to correct the speedo than anything else although it would make the ride smoother too.

Try a drop (about 200ml/full tank of petrol) of my favourite ATF in the tank, it's quietened a lot of fuel pumps!

Was it a combi boiler Luke? Not what you need at anytime, especially this time of year with everything else happening!

Have a great Xmas and don't get too perverted with your 7/9xx!!!
