  1. Bought a honda 125xl, just needs a front headlight and the front rim is rusted out. Been trawling trade me but no luck apart from one crowd wanting  150 of another cruddy old wheel (chromed steel)

    thinking maybe mx alloy wheels and lace them to the drum brake/hub?

    Apparently the swing arm bearings sometimes go on these, causing excessive movement. Could be the problem.

    My citroen bx rhs one went (from memory that side goes first)

    pretty obvious as it starts getting sweet neg camber and the alloys where rubbing the inner guard

  3. atf in a hyd pump (airless sprayer)  soon fucks it reeeaal good 

    looked like someone had taken to the piston and bore with sandpaper

    but that was going at 1500rpm for a few weeks 

    so yeah hand pumping prob not a big deal/ find some hyd oil

    How many kms has it done? I recently acquired a vq. And I have no desire whatsoever to lay a spanner on it.

    235k, seems to be the early vqs that suffer

    heard a few 350zs needing valve seals

    the maximas suffer supposedly from the cats being too close to the engine and the bits of magic inside them flakes of gets swirled around and back into the engine and fucks the bore

    also have no interest in finding out which one it is so just feed it the good (cheapest) oil and will continue to drive till it dies
