ok so all this works been done and its back in the garage. i havn't been able to drive it for 2weeks now and am pottering around in my backup car. a 1.3L Metro. it sucks (but i managed 70Mph in 3rd, which when you consider it only has 4 gears and tops out at 80Mph isn't bad ) anyway just venting my frustration until i get it back (thursday or friday) i need the speed back.
