hi mate, why didnt ya introduce yourself???

popped to STS and they quoted 262 quid to do the starter! went down ford and picked a new one up for 73 quid and fitted myself.......... says it all!!

still have the problem, still awaiting on a dump valve blanking plug!

anybody know of any other reason why my car sounds like its dumping pressure all the time?? when you put your foot down, you can hear a whooshing. im currently blaming the dump valve. (but the dump valve still dumps gas when changing etc. The car used to run 18 psi but now struggles at 14psi........
