I actually am sorry, Alex. I've been reading beer all morning, thought I was in the Beer Thread!

Morgan, buy a new gasket, they are practically free they are so cheap.

I will

Only noticed it on Sunday and won't really see the car for another fortnight!

[Morgan]

repco would sell those gaskets wouldn't they?

[Adam]

Probably. Or order them in.

I found a bursons in Campbelltown! Did not know they existed!

[Morgan]

There is a Bursons right near work. Will drop in tomorrow methinks

Oh and Katie is going to work by train this sat so I'll try and fix it all up then

Question. It's probably a good idea to change the oil after changing the gasket but I only changed the oil on Sunday. Do I have to do it again?!

[B4TT]

Why would you need to change the oil after you change the gasket? just don't about and get dirt and shit in the oil and it will be fine.

[Morgan]

Exactly what I wanted to hear

[Adam]

Yep, that^

You may still some oil, so just check the level?

[B4TT]

If the engine isn't running you shouldn't be spilling oil.....gravity pulls oil in the downards direction (towards the dirt Adam ) if the oil is settled there will be a bit laying around the top of the head under the cams and shiz but there it will be below the level of where the top of the head meets the rocker cover.

[Adam]

Fair enough!


Think I'm goin to get a bitumen driveway laid up to the shed.


I really don't want to over capitalise on the property though!

[Morgan]

Expenno

[B4TT]

Just pave it with gold bullion blocks.

[Adam]

Expenno

Cheaper than concrete. And I hate that loose pebble shit.

I thought paving but surely thats up there with price once you lay the pavers in concrete (I wouldnt lay just on a bed of sand because or block gets rather wet)

Something like this

[Morgan]

Don't you need heaps of underground prep for bitumen?

I love a blue metal driveway. We had one at our old place and I love the sound

Hurts bare feet though and every few years you need to redo it as it compresses into the ground and you loose some with rain, etc.

[Morgan]

Don't you need heaps of underground prep for bitumen?

Or do they only do that on public roads because there is so much traffic?

[Adam]

No idea. Just starting to look at it! Prob going to be too expensive!

Was the blue metal just loose in a border? Im not a fan of loose driveways.

I could always look at concreting. But DIY, and then put pebbles over the top, because I wouldn't be able to smooth it like a pro
