so i filled the tank with 91 last week and after just 290 kms it started beeping at me saying i needed petrol in another 78kms/
also the other day when it was 42 degrees the car would not start without holding the throttle on while starting, so ive put it down to dud coils and plugs, on slightly cooler days with 98 in the tank its also had problems starting and has a slight miss at idle. just bought a cold air induction which replaces the standard snorkel, because its cheaper than adding the turbo bottom part. $50 delivered. i wish i remembered to put the standard snorkel on the el and remove the large ba one off that  would lf had the damn thing for free, and its not like the car was going to be worth any less on trade in.

Will be going on next week wheels shouldve been on now but theres been a bit of a f**k around and because of that ive lost interest, ive gone into save mode with my money and havent been really spending any money on anything i didnt need. going to pay out my credit card all toegether, chop it up and save for a house, it sure helps when the mrs now has a job that pays more than centrelink does . i cant believe in retail they can pay a 19 year old $13 an hour full time

Yeah, my missus barely scrapes $300 a week, sometimes a fortnight. Her boss is a f**k b**ch, and I've felt like walking in and punching the whore straight in the face for the way she treats her. Thank f**k we are moving next month, so she can get a job that actually pays her properly.

Thank f**k we are moving next month, so she can get a job that actually pays her properly. yeah seems we share the same feelings on our partners jobs lol. the problem is my missus works with mostly women, and the men that are employed to work in the company are gay,so its just one big b**ch session from all the childish women/ gay men. the guys are quite nice to speak with but love b**ch behind peoples back, and the women just constantly argue with each other plus the b**ch behind everyones back, which in my opinion just makes it harder to wake up every morning and actually go to her job. i dont like the hours i do at my work but 4 of my best and closest mates/ family members work with me so it makes it that much easier to wake up in the arvo and drive off to start a 12 hour shift. just wondering where did you purchase your gtech and how much are they?

The basic GTECH SS is like $270. Just google it, takes you to their website. Some people say they're rubbish and aren't accurate etc, I've not had a problem yet.
Yeah, she works with women only too... One of the girls is nice, but the rest are just stuck up whores who really need to shut their mouths. She was on like $16/hr which was okay, but then they forced her into the 2IC position because she was the only one able to do it, which is full time and it docked her pay.

bet having 6 months off a year helps too lol
im looking into coming back out into the mines within 6-12months, and ideally one of the places im looking at would employ me on an 8 on 6 off roster. would be awesome... or live local and get a 'living local' allowance of up to $30,000 a year  not to mention i would then be earning a pretty hefty salary and would be able to rub it in my x-gf's face... lol

Download the applestore app, I think it's called Dynolicious. Can even give you hp/tq, and it costs $13 from the app store. I don't think it's as accurate as a GTECH, but it's a good rough estimate.

Why are you running it on 91? and clean your throttle body before wasting money on coils and plugs. These things run like dogs with filthy throttle bodies,i clean throttle everytime i service now (10k) never had any starting dramas since. |
