just need to vent a bit of steam from a very bad morning.
first i go to the bank to pay in a cheque thats ok but wait 'you have the wrong account type' can you change it? no you'll have tio make an appointment with someone to change it (get the feeling they are going to try and flog me stuff i really dont want). well i get home thinking ill wash and wax my car that'll make me feel better (just bought back to black, new wax, tyre foam cleaner, tyre blackner and interior cleaner - garunteed to make the ole car look and smell like new) squeeze into the garage get in the car, key in the ignition....nothing! battery is flat as a really flat thing. so i now have a car that is dead and stuck in the garage( no one here to help me get her out) no jump leads anyway and bugger all to do all day.

the max power manual isnt really that helpful imo - gets u to the middle of somethin then leaves out a few major details!



atleast ya dad got you a new battery.........and a good word for the bank is NO!

good going i thought it would be easier just to go buy a new battery (get a nice black one not like the big white one thats sticks out like a sore thumb) but dad was like no no no just wait till i get home and we'll jump it off my car. i spose i could give the engiene bay a bit of a spruce up as i still have access to that what can you use to clean it??? dont want to take it apart though
thanks

you cant pay a cheque in cause you dont have the eight account?! that just does not seem right, a bank wont let you put money into your bank?? what banks that then?!

if you have any metal bits in your engine bay get a brillo pad on them will clean them up a treat, get some black to black on all the plastic bits of the engine and buff it up with kitchen roll to help clean it
