    Nice to hear House Sparrows in the background, you hardly see,or hear them in England now.Regarding the motorcar, looks like you have a "sound" example,hope it runs as good as it looks.I bought a wedgewood blue CDT Connesuier 2ltr diesel,(2001),drives well,but there are some corrosion issues to sort out.Good Luck.

      It's great that someone else has commented on the sparrows in the background - the last time I re-watched this video was in the middle of winter and it struck me how many birds you can hear in the spring 😊 The car has been a field somewhere in North Scotland for many years now - this was 2018 before I sold it to a pal as a stop-gap car. I still have a 75 though 😀

    Probably worth amending your video title to Plenum *Drain* . Can't believe you didn't a) unclip the ECU (5 seconds) & lift it out the way so you could clean any soppy crud underneath it, and b) "didnae bother" with the other side. Honestly mate, K-BDG might be a better channel name.

    Ah, so it’s normal for water to get down there? Somewhat relieving for me as that tends to suggest the bulkhead can cope with some water. It’s happened twice in the autumn. Presumably it did drain slowly. Will unblock it now.

    There is no need to do anything with the door handle, when the door card is free of the metal center clip, all that is needed is to slide the handle towards the back of the car and pull it away and out towards the front of the car, then push it through the hole. To re fit, push it back through the hole, slide it in sideways towards the back of the car, then slide it towards the front of the car a little.

      You could try some high build primer and then sand it back before applying the top coats. I think if you used filler on this you would just have an island on the paint no matter how hard you tried to get it smooth.

  • @MrPaulfrazer
    @MrPaulfrazer Před rokem

    You can get the chrome trim round the lock to stay on by drilling small holes through the inside part of the chrome trim into the moulding that holds the lever and screwing in small self tapping screws. The grey moulding into which it fits has a double skin so as long as you only drill through the first skin the repair cannot be seen once it is fitted. Much stronger than the original flimsy tags. I should have taken photos when I did it last week! My sympathies regarding the push button rod. I have spent frustrated ages getting this to fit - and have succeeded in the end! I will try your method next time - there is sure to be a next time!

    • @split_pin
      @split_pin Před rokem

      3 ways to tell. 225s should have twin exhausts although some 180s have been converted. The second way is to check the V5 as the engine code will be there. The 3rd way which you can do now is to run the reg through the 'value my car' section of carbaba.co.uk and the BAM engine code will show in the information it gives you. Good luck with your viewing buddy 👍
