What has made you Angry Today???????

Realistically they aren't worth that much. That's a pretty good deal Winnie. They sell for more privately due to demand of the drive train. You could cut that in half for a petrol variant. We are lucky that we can insure them for higher amounts compared to most cars of the same vintage.

My petrol variant market value is 9k...... :-)

The trick is not to be greedy, be realistic and most importantly, don't have an accident

But that makes it worth more. "it's worth what someone is willing to pay"

Might pay to have the gas system checked, they are a fickle bitch and a pain in the arrrs if they dont work 100%

Farkin gas system backfired again and stalled but this time would not start again on gas and when I started it on petrol all it did was idle roughly and had no revs whatsoever So he I am on the side of the highway in the breakdown lane with trucks roaring pass me at 80+ clicks and all I can think about is that guy and girl that got killed a while back that was on the side of the road broken down.

Rang the missus and said you better pick up our daughter as I'm going nowhere, lucky she was able to leave work and pick her up. Not with NRMA roadside so rang my old man who is an ex diesel mechanic..........typical no answer on home phone, rang his mobile.....no answer!!!! Buy this time I'm wondering if I would make it by 6pm to pick up my boy from pre-school and wishing I was at home with a coldie in my hand.

Decided to ring my local mechanic ( which by the way I don't use that often so didn't like my chances ) and asked him what was the chances of coming out and having a look. I'll be there in 10 was his reply

He believed there was a problem with the gas converter ( I think thats what it was called ) and buy passed it so it would hopefully run on petrol. Managed 2 get it back 2 the workshop and lucky for me the gas specialist next door to them was still open so sent me around to him. He pulled what i think was the gas converter apart and sure enough I had blown the diaphragm so it wasn't making a proper seal. The guy said whoever had put the diaphragm in did not put it the correct way and because of that it allowed it to blow in when it backfired because one of the bolts wasn't holding it in properly.............well something like that anyway.

Finally back on the road, picked son up from pre-school and daughter up from my partners work was meant to do some shopping but said bugger that I'm going home for a beer

So here I am in the angry thread with a beer in hand

Car still backfiring on gas so leaving it on petrol for now, going to ring the the mechanics 2morrow and book it in 2 get the leads and plugs done then in a few weeks when money permits will book it into the gas specialist and get it tuned.

Well thats it for the angry thread 2day, going to have another beer and head on over to the happy thread

P.S: I WISH I WAS DRIVING MY GQ and not the crappadore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
