[chester-lad]

sounds fooked to me ....

Sticking your hands around a running engine in the way he`s doing it not a good idea.

this is strange...why do people feel the need to rev their engines if they believe there is a fault with it?

my neighbour had a transit, sat outside for a few weeks and i over heard in conversation that it was broke so couldnt move it from outside my house. not that i ws bothered hes a good bloke and left room for me to still park my bike there.
anyway...one night a bloke turns up, yeah im great with these things, yardyyardy! start her up, yeah keep her going, little more, rev it, keep it going and im sat here thinking to myself... yeah, hes dropped a valve or 8 lol, id stop doing that.

20 minutes later, they decided to stop, or it stopped itself.

when things sound like cunt, why continue to do it ?

So they can post a video on youtube and show the world how sillly they are? Should never be allowed a car like that if he doesnt know how to look after it imo. A good one of those will fetch an absolute fortune these days :(

Think hes spraying cab/injector cleaner in the inlets.

[jasonmayall]

the inlets on the other side of the engine, im sure?

This, although it looks like WD40 but yea im sure hes spraying it into the inlets not on the belt.

no the inlet is on his side the filter is on the same side as the turbo/exhaust mani

[xxo0pko0xx]

i think thats dropped every exhaust valve it has

[tingaling]

By the looks of it he's spraying into the inlet to get it running, like easy start, that's why its knocking.
