What I extrapolated from stocky was that he had an alignment done then fitted new wheels and now is having an issue, as mentioned the alignment won't have changed so the only variable is the new wheels.

Gosh I'm tired!

Woke up at 5:30 AM this morning, got to work, ended up having a pretty decent concrete pour on and did that all day. I got home, came on the net for about 10 minutes, looked at my bed and it was begging me to lay on it. I did so. Nek minit; I wake up now. My indoor game is at 8:40 PM and I haven't even showered from work.

I feel disgusting. Bed is clean thank God though, my legs were hanging off the edge.

I feel like a zombie.

Fark. What a day.

Had a SW20 MR2 in for some repairs, Hooked into it and got everything done. (I didn't work under the car, Just on top, Didn't see the fuel leaking)

Checked it over, Got it to finally run properly and went for a drive...I get a phone call from one of the boys in the workshop (He was going to tell me about the fuel smell coming from the car as i drove out). Ignore it because i'm driving...Then I see fire coming from the back of the car.
Freak the Posted Image out, Pull over, Pop the bonnet (Rear of the car) and was lucky enough to get it under control before anything bad happened.

Turns out the owner had installed a high flow fuel pump the week before, The car was starting so I assumed he had done it correctly.

He hadn't secured the fuel lines, One shot off (They sit right near the turbo) and spat fuel all over the exhaust and hot side of the turbo. Thank goodness for my bottle of water sitting in the passenger seat.

Secured the line, Limped it back to the shop, Showed my boss, Got grilled over it, Started pulling it apart and called it a day. :(

I need a beer.

I other news, I'm now a skin head. Like a ZERO, Feels good man.

It's good because it doesn't burn up, Our engines love to eat oil.

It will be fine in your car Adam, Yours doesn't have AVCS.

Evil Cam. Glad it wasn't any worse!

Are they a shit car to work on? I had a weird obsession with AW11's a few years back.

Not really an obsession, more of a guilty crush.

Farkin' terrible. Everything is just silly.

AW11's are just as bad. Such cool cars though, When they are fixed. Little go karts.

If the alignment has been set correctly then it's set.
What can happen is that the tyres have been run on a different car and will wear according to that alignment, when they are fitted to another car they behave differently. The same if your car drives straight then you switch the front wheels left to right (now rotating in opposite direction) and it pulls one way or the other.


Not good Cam (except for the shaving head bit)

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?
