  1. probably only the surface is hard. Hit it with an angle grinder first to get through
  2. Just be happy you don't have a box with synchronized reverse
  3. I wasn't suggesting it's more likely with the new setup, I'm just picturing it happening. For some reason it is too easy to hit reverse instead of fourth in my brother's capri (some modern falcon gearbox), hell of a grinding noise
  4. I'm just picturing a miss-shift from 2nd down into 1st and hitting 17000 rpm
  5. How much would something like this need to be watered down to get a cert in NZ?
  6. As above, probably just get whatever you can find. I'm still running original hoses on the starlet, no idea how much of a timebomb they are but it seems to have had good coolant all its life and there are no signs of crunchiness.
  7. This seems like the sort of doohicker you would need for your zero-vacuum engine
  8. Can always just get a big pile of desiccant instead of a dehumidifying machine
  9. I had the wrong battery in my hilux for a while, but that was because I harvested it from the LPG Corolla when it got written off. Was always expecting the battery cables to snap at any moment
  10. "Oh well, I guess my car is gonna be positive ground from now on"
  11. @fueland @ProZacare Mitsubishi weirdos
  12. Are these things mass airflow sensor or MAP? My hilux has similar behaviour when the fuel pump was bad.
  13. I recall seeing something a few years ago where a guy pulled apart the fuel/injection system on an old mercedes diesel after it had been run on biodiesel for a few years. Everything was completely buggered from corrosion internally
  14. Perfect size for putting a garlic bread in for heating up
  15. Their MSDS indicates it is just plain old fashioned phosphoric acid: https://recharge.net.nz/wp-content/themes/recharge/pdf/msd.pdf
  16. I've done the backwards release bearing before... Not entirely enjoyable at the time.
  17. A million dollars of equipment and skill to try and save a $120 battery. Sounds like oldschool
  18. Nah nah, these guys know all the secrets that big battery doesn't want you to know.
  19. Doesn't logic dictate that if epsom salts actually made a shit battery really good then the factory would put it in?
