What did you do in the garage yesterday?
Discussion
Fitted new radiator - and of course, didn't fit like a glove - natch....I reckon I have a dodgy car!
Anyways, after some fettling, rad in, pipes connected and water / anitfreeze in.
BUT the car would not start to aid the bleeding of the cooling system - tried tapping the relay (which got the fuel pump priming the other night - nothing.
Refitted bonnet and after a punishing day at work, I had no more time and energy....
New relays come tomorrow.
Do relays just die like this?
Nosh.

They can do mate. I'm not saying it is the relay but it sounds as if it wasn't 100% from your comment above.Anyways, after some fettling, rad in, pipes connected and water / anitfreeze in.

Once you know the specs easy to find Phil and as UKDJ states they are bespoke for the job http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/131561296851?adgrou...
Thanks guysSimon - the ebay one means I can get 2 for the price of one from racedirect! Good job
Cheers
Noise.....
In fact, both did this when plugged into the black socket.
No noises from the blue socket.
Car still does not start.....
.....out of ideas!

You need a proper aluminum burr which is normally courser with less blades, if you don't it will clog up in seconds
I'm not trying to teach you to sucks eggs, but might be helpful if you didn't know
Very true Alex but a squirt of oil ( wd40) stops it I'm not trying to teach you to sucks eggs, but might be helpful if you didn't know
It even un clogs cutters that are full of aluminium

What was stopping it before? Faulty parts, or faulty operative?
Needed a new relay for the footwell, Anthony - got two - it was the black socket one and not the blue socket one.Anyway - all good now.
Got to adjust headlights a little lower tomorrow and finish bleeding the cooling system after new rad fitted.
And the weekend looks nice!

Absolutely nothing as I was at a TD yesterday, hooray!
Now car needs new tyres all round, new pads and stiffer springs, boo!
The upside is that I enjoy doing it, hooray again!
At Snetterton yesterday the old chim was just about as fast as a new GT3 but was lacking in the bends, much thought now as to how to improve the handling…………...
