Default massive thanks to dingy and dave cos4x4

to say these 2 guys pulled me out of the shit today is an understatement!!

I went to donno today with a couple of m8's to support our m8 clive (righthooker on here) in his black 3door cos.
when we got there he said he had a missfire at 6 k so I siad I would have a look for him, i took the dizzy cap off with some difficulty and found the rotor arm to be very dirty so cleaned it up along with the cap.
fitted it back together and had real trouble getting the cap back on properly thought it was on ok then started the car and it snapped the rotor arm
so clives car (and track day) was over I asked around for a spare rotor arm and found none I then took the rotor arm out of the cossie we travelled down in and put it in clives to get him back on track..
started the car and this rotor arm snapped...arghhh

we now had 2 cars immobile and I just wanted to fookin hide

dave cos4x4 gave me a spare cap and arm which fixed clives(once I had no 1 and 4 firing correctly )

Dingy then came to the rescue with another arm to get us home in the other cossie


to say I was thankfull was an understatement

once again guys thanks for bailing me out of the shit I am truelly thankfull

steve
