MOT yesterday... No Advisories However my garage guy, who replaced my belts + did antifreeze, says the gills have pretty much disappeared from the radiator. The BayofE sorted me a brand new Corolla fit [equivalent] rad for £18 delivered = so that'll do! Need a front pipe on the Ex so ATS are sourcing me one (£125 fitted) for next week ... nothing but trouble these 'old sheds' OVIMOR

IIRC someone on here has custom machined a 'bobbin/throttle wheel', the throttle cable wraps around, with a spiral profile = giving non linear pedal/butterfly opening rate?
Wonder if it might suit other applications/installs...

Am I correct that (like kayakers) you can get a weather cover that is like a kagool - goes round the cockpit & around the drivers waist?

Just yesterday I had my local garage drop/refill the Gearbox oil. I have had some sticking in gear and general 'snick/crunch' upchanges for a while.... When I got last years MOT I asked the MOT guys (who did a bit of work on the suspension) to give it Oil & Filters + Check Gbox level = said it was OK! I have done around 100 miles now and the changes are really clean and without any snatch or tugging.... Hmm?? Perhaps the oil was a bit low ( ) or just 26yr Past its Best! OVIMOR

Epic Thread Dredge here.... I'm looking to see if there is a core of Carina II lurve around RR. Why does this Toyota Carina Liftback 16V GLi have 5stud wheels? Is it 'parts bin' allocation of all round Disc brakes (from the Camry)?? *EDIT THIS Saw a for sale, on Amazon.... ABS 15990 Brake Discs for L/R 15990 TOYOTA CARINA II (#T17#) (1987-1992) 2.0-16V Rear & CAMRY Ahh! What alternative might be suitable for my boot...? Mine has 4x100.... the majority of breakers seem to be 4x100! OVIMOR
