I hate self serve wreckers. People destroy the part you want trying to get to something else...Everytime i go to one the part i want has been broken..

Yeh I know what you mean, i've experienced this too. Sometimes I go there every weekend and a cars gone in during the week, the bums have already destroyed shit before you get a chance to get there.

Yeah it's annoying. Finally get to do some work on the corty tomorrow as looks like we will have warmish weather in adelaide. Going to apply body deadener to the whole undercarriage and remove feuel tank and give it a clean and repaint and remove the dodgy sender and try sort it out. Someone might come grab those disks i got advertised if he's not too busy at work. Apparently he's been after them for awhile too.

The senders probably still in that corty at u pull it, hook it up while the tanks out and test it in different positions, if it doesn't work take it back.

Repainted my engine today except the rocker cover which i'll do tomorrow if i can get a new rocker cover gasket. Repainted the extractors with High temp header paint. Flat black. Looked awesome after 2 coats then when i went to do the third coat i picked up the wrong can of paint and sprayed gloss black high temp engine enamel on it..Not happy. It's eaten into the bottom layers of the header paint and has reacted. Will just have to bring it for a run tomorrow and let it burn off then recoat it. Next time i will turn my mobile off as when i was mid way through painting i got a call and it got me sidetracked...lol. Also fitted new wiper washer bottle and need 1 more length of hose. Tomorrow i'll fit polished alloy overflow bottle and new radiator cap 13 lb fah-ler show cap.
