    Nicks garage meet, Friday 22nd April.

    It appears that the limping Fox wants me to do some work on his car on 22nd April. In some kind of dodgy three-way, Atik is recieving "favours" from Jason too. So as there will be three of us tinkering, I wondered if anyone else wanted a cup of coffe/natter/p!sstake too?

    I can offer tools and advice to anyone that turns up, but not necessarily time to actually work on your car.

    All are welcome!

    Just to clarify, the work I need doing in order of priority (I know not all of this will get done)
    1. AYC Pressure Switch needs replacing
    2. Rear ABS sensors need inspecting
    3. Alternator needs swapping
    4. De-cat pipe fitting
    5. New 2 AWG cable needs running from Alternator to wherever it ends up
    6. Battery to boot
    7. Fuel pump fitting and hotwiring

    Amesh - you are more than welcome.

    Jason - I'll have a crack at most of that, but the battery to boot thing might be something for another day. What about your de-cat? I expected that on the list too?

    Steve. You are a nutter. But whilst you are here - does anyone fancy doing Steve a favour? I have got two gas struts sitting in my garage that belong to him. Steve would be very pleased if someone would take them to Japfest.

    The meet would be in the B97 6 (Batchley, Redditch, Worcestershire) area, I'll let Nick provide his full address if/when/how he's ready, but it gives you a good idea of location.

    Providing you had access to the trolley jack, I'd say about 30-45 mins per corner, problem is he's only got 2 and people are gonna be fighting for them (including myself )
