  1. goog ol' castrol bearing grease here. amazed you managed to shatter a firestorm diff
  2. yeah, i kinda figured it would be something like that. they dont need to be those specific values, provided they're in a 2:1 ratio and are as small as i can get away with. 20:40 wouldbe good, its just i have limited space for the larger pulleys
  3. wow, been a while, time flies when your busy eh

  4. hey guys, been a while since i've been on here but i need some assistance with a little project of mine. the project is a secret i'm afraid i'm kinda wishing i hadnt got rid of my old ezstart, would have been handy but basically i need to know a few measurements: diameter+length of the shaft from the engine the dimensions+size of the bolt holes and if possible, how much space there is from the centre of the glow plug to the edge of the motor [ie the clearance for the cooling head] any help would be greatly appreciated.
  5. been a while since i've been on here. so here goes. currently been working on a project, 'tis a secret, but it involves belts and pulleys and could do with some advice. basically i need to know the sizings of the following pulley sizes: inner diameter, maximum outer diamater, maximum thickness. 32t 16t 8t [if they even exist] i'm afraid that pulleys are an area of rc i've never dealt with before, so i have no idea if they are of a standard size or manufacturer specific, provided they'll run the same belt i'm not fussed. any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
  6. not as bad as kryten somehow looking older, not only is it not in character, but its lot like it should be difficult to do big fan of rd myself, got series 1-8 and back to earth, refusing to watch back to earth till i get the one i missed in between

  12. just the ticket for my new project!
  13. normally i use rtv or similar, but for when nothing but a gasket will do i use cerial boxes
  14. but we already have insane tax at the pumps, that would just make things worse.....
  15. dont think number 2 needs any more votes, but i'm voting for it anyway. either that or lotus jps colours....
  16. what the... i dont even know whats going on any more.....
  17. shame the moon is hiding from me tonight, but for the rest of tonight i shall be raising my glass to a truly historic name, a legend in his own lifetime, and proof of what humanity can acheive when we really put our minds to it.
  18. sorry, what? a car, regardless of its use on the road, remains YOUR posession, in the same way as your legs are, its like telling someone they cant walk down the street with shoes on because 'its a modification to the original manufacture of your feet'. mate of mine had a discovery 2.5tdi, he got it ecu chipped for more torque, power and as a side effect he also got an extra 5mpg out of it and less emissions. goverment tryin to tell us that is a bad thing?
  19. news going around, supposedly he had heart troubles, and now at the age of 82 he is dead i'm sure i dont need to say how the world has lost a great man, the likes of which i doubt we will see again for quite a while. details have not come out yet, but i hope he went gracefully content in his accomplishments. consolations to his family, freinds and colleagues. may he rest in peace
  20. true, but the octavia has a bigger boot
  21. skoda, because they are no longer awful, and are in fact, volkswagens in disguise
  22. its ironic that the reason for his killings was he hated the liberal goverment, and he got such a light sentence, oh well i suppose the good way to look at it is he only has 10 guaranteed years of safety from the relatives of those he killed...
  23. not sure they removed all the unnessecary stuff there, looks like an over-complex design to me [/lightheartedsarcasm]
