      I’ve been impressed with it over the years too. We use 3 different ones at work, Putoline , ACF and XCP. They’re all good in their own way, I think the neatest is the Putoline, the best protecting is the XCP and the ACF is the middle one that’s not too messy and gives decent protection

    I do this every year using Vactan before the mot, an hour rakes care of the rear beam and front crossmember/ suspension. If it shows rust the it get coated. My bugs 14 and as good as new so it'll probably see me on the scrap heap first. 😊

      I’ve used diesel in the past and it has worked well. Before dropping the oil, we used to put a litre or 2 of diesel in the sump old lorries that I used to work on at my old job, and would bring a lot of crap out.

    Lanogaurd is made from sheep's wool and is clear and dries to a thick shield I used it on two cars sticks like shit to a blanket once dry like a wax acf50 8s quite thin and a water repellant good for creeping into areas but likely wash off under a car lano is the way to go but interested to see how acf does hold up ive used it on lots of bikes.

    • @StupidBlokeStupidVideos
      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos  Před rokem +3

      I did consider lano but it’s deeeeeeear bro. I asked them for a price and was knocking on £100 for the kit and they told me it degrades after a year. I’d still love to try it though and reckon it probably does protect better than this method, but saying that I have seen ACF work wonders keeping bikes in good nick so I’ll just see how it goes with it

    Excellent videos. I think your the C1 God so need to ask a question, My Power Steering ECU has started clicking when the ignition is off (it clicks rapidly), just wondering if you have had this issue and know a fix ? (Pulling the plug that has a fat white and black cable I think it is, the one on the end stops it but connect it again and it starts again) Thanks

    • @StupidBlokeStupidVideos
      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos  Před rokem

      I’ve not had that issue but they are common for failing and people seem to replace them pretty often on the groups so I reckon it will be an issue I’ll get one day. Also though, check voltages. Modules can do weird shit when voltages are a bit low

    • @SteveO2027
      @SteveO2027 Před rokem

      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos thanks will do, I saw a video before by I think a repair company and they were replacing the relay inside the power steering control box, will give that a go sometime but for now I was thinking of maybe fitting a switch to that end connector to save unplugging and plugging it back in... the easier and cheaper fixes are always the best :-)

      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos Thanks, yea saw some of them but then also read they need programmed to the car, I have a cable and software that I used to program a key so wonder if that could do it as well.
      Voltage at the wires is a steady 12.6v
      Yea the relay route is probably the way as it is a relay clicking noise and they sell relay fix kits for it..... only thing is the company that makes the relays discontinued them so it seems to have bumped the prices up and also unbranded AliExpress ones are floating around with the Omron brand stamped on them
      Going to see if there's any updated or alternatives before trying the ebay relays
      It's actually not to bad driving it without powersteering anyway

    There's some bungs under the carpet in the boot that might be worth removing, to coat the inside with.
    They seem to have a habit of rotting as well at the rear beam mounts where the spray with the tube could get in and slow down the process.
    Good video. Will slow it all down for sure.
