Fille · 25th May 2012, 04:51

Am I the only idiot still on here? Phil? Alan? 2Diesels?

Phil · 25th May 2012, 12:17

I'm here still. Still an idiot. Just had a hectic start to the year. Hang on, its May, a hectic year so far! What Citroen have you decided on?

Phil · 25th May 2012, 12:18

forget the Citroen, get the allegro!!

2Diesels · 25th May 2012, 13:03

I'm charging the Marina's battery as we speak. Hoping to take it for a blast tomorrow.

Well I've had a productive day.
Drove the Marina, faultless. Then go to Asda in the new 75. It only went and flippin broke down!!!!
Half tank of diesel, stuttered violently twice, then EP came on the dash and about a minute later it cut out. Restarted immediately. No fault since.
I have a feeling the underbonnet pump may be faulty. It is hotter than the sun to touch and with todays heat on a ten year old electric pump may have raised the resistance enough to make it have a tantrum? No eml on now. Any ideas? I knew I should have bought another 1.8!!!
