Default BOOST TURNED UP TODAY :banana: Harvey Gibbs :top:

After my little problem with a split rad hose, I managed to make it down to Harveys by bodging two shit hoses together with copper pipe to make one good on

Now running circa 1.8 bar on my T4

I know its not 700bhp but it goes ok :P gearbox is going to shit itself v soon me thinks

I know he only comes on here VERY occasionally but massive thanks to BIG BEAR (my new name for him due to size of his hands ) i.e. Harvey Gibbs, Ann, and the mechanic (forgotten his name ) at SCS

You mean Tim, Dom...... (he might be offended if you call him just a 'mechanic' though )

Sort the hose before it bites ya!!!!! Increases in power will usually find the weakest link (GOODBYE!!), and you don't really want to be dumping the coolant due to a failed (and bodged at that! ) part whilst giving it large.......

Maybe you'll get a great big.................BEAR SLAP next time you pop in there...

yes, standard, they love it . it will all get done when finds allow, simple.

pete, how many problems did the previous owner of your escort have?? how many have you had with it??? you are the cursed one just no car you own is ever the same again

anyway, it's not cursed. its a cossie....look in any peformance ford feature and its the same old story....after 5 rebuilds, x and y messing up, its finally how it is now....
