    It's Back!

    Look out everyone! The Panthero tarmac terrorist is back in action!

    I picked up my MOT certificate at six o'clock. Then took my car out for a blast to finally test out the new brakes, tyres, remap, and so on.
    I forgot how good the old S2 is.
    Now I've just got to chase the usual boost leaks, and no doubt fix a few other minor problems, to get it back to full power.
    After months of I’m now , for the moment anyway.

        Cheers Chris. I'm glad you got yours back too. I hope that young man took care of it while you were on holiday from your S2.

        I don't blame you Jamo, I can hardly believe it myself!

                  Yeah. I'm hoping to drive it over to yours Tom. Although don't expect Her Ladyship to be too happy if I do. She's not too keen on the old banger. It might help a bit if I got my air-con fixed, to make her feel more comfortable. I've just refitted the rubber seal on the fuel tank sender, so hopefully that'll stop the stink of fuel inside the car.

                  Thanks guys.

                  I was thinking of posting details of my brake project, but I'm not sure I'll be covering any new ground.

                    Hey Stu make sure you dont over heat, that m5 from yours to tom's is very bad full of caravans and unatended road works.

                      Your right Rob. I'm not sure what all the unattended road works are all about.
                      I normally avoid the M5 anyway. It's a bit boring. I go cross country and hit the Devon lanes. It's not caravans there, just cows, tractors and Discos to watch out for!

                        Ah-ha!! I did a pressure test on the boost hoses last night, I found the source of my hiss.
                        Underneath on the TB hose.

                          Nice one, get yourself some SAMCO's. Best investment i made, well apart from buying the car Only boost leaks i get is when the DV valve breaks, seems to happen a bit on mine.

                              Cheers Robo, but it's already sorted. That kind Gentleman from Yeovilshire is letting me have one.
