I was cleaning out CHiP yesterday and halfway thru I had this overwhelming feeling that I was actually saying goodbye ... :(
Weird, as it just started as a tidy up ...
keen on seeing a parts list please,trying to get the ooze running right,def need an alternator among other things please
I thought the black ooze actually had the best alternator ?
Got another under the house and CHiPs one.
its in a pretty bad state and i think its out of line with the main pulley it runs off as it keeps spitting belts
what a stash!!!!!!
keen on that headlight for sure please,and an alternator if there is one please?
Sorry, something has cropped up.
I will sort the headlight, you will have to arrange postage or travel.
The alternator won't be available at the present time, try realigning the old one and remember ALWAYS keep the old starters, alternators etc.
any joy with the headlight and alternator PBA?
Sorry man just been laying back for a while ... >:D
Just starting a new spring clean this week, headlight is still available, unsure if the other alternator works, will check it all out this week.
Keen on both please
how you feeling man? hope you're on the mend? any luck with the headlight and alternator?
Sorry dude. self medicating with Mary (about all thats left, till the lungs go ... ) :laugh:
Still have everything we talked about earlier ... ::)
can send cash and boxes and get couriers to pick up,getting close to wof time and i'll be needing a light...help me obi wan kenobi....you're my only dope
Give a address and I will see if the truck can drop them off,
or we will coming down soon for a meeting/party, hope the neighbours don't mind a few Harleys on your front lawn !!!
>:D
:-\
Sorry man I got back too late last night and missed the truck,
he was going to Dunedin for the Stevie Nicks show too !! ... :( , we do hauling for all the big concerts.
I can't make up mind about which h/light to send you (ones got something wrong with a clip or ... so was going to send both).
Looks like I will have to drive when the guys ride down, and drop them off. >:D
Would like to see the Black ooze if thats possible. 8)
that would be cool,you'll wanna kill me,looks no different than when you sold her,maybe more paint wear and rougher if that was possible....has been parked up most of the time....put less than 2000km on her in the time i've had her
Hey ya, I need a fuel pump and a sender for the ooze. Do you have one please?
Only on CHiP ... no spares
But CHiP is nearly on its last chance, its a case of go and go well or get stripped !!!
And all the spare parts, boots, bonnets etc are also out the door ... :-\
Such a waste, but nothing fits the S8, ::)
You need to grab CHiP or live next door .... lol
Any other 100 or 200 owners in the region are welcome to ask about parts. Or any one looking for a project feel free to enquire.
i ideally need a left hand headlight, and the metal trim surround for the front grill please? willing to pay and have someone collect for me from you so you don't have to deal with shipping? and if i'm luck the front bottom valance and the left hand guard.basically all the damage that was on the ooze when i got it off you? what do you reckon ,sound like it's possible?
Yeah I have a spare guard (quickly runs out door to check) thinks its off the grey one. Problem is the Ooze has the rolled rim.
Headlights (4) are sitting in the lounge, one of the left has a broken lens like a bullet hole, the other is good. I will send you both in case of a unknown issue.
Again have another bottom valance if its the part I'm thinking off, from the red one.
Maybe I should just buy it back from ya and try and sort it all out up here ?
Jesus, I be dead if the missus reads this, ;D :laugh: :laugh: ;D >:D
Be gone for the rest of night we having a drink or 3 and a bbq, gawd have not heard "10 Years After" in sooooo long ...
spent all day cleaning the outside, still looks rough, try and clean the inside tomorrow on my break with a vac, its at the mechanics, they're gonna take a look at why she ain't firing...i reckon the fuel pump is toast...or if i am lucky ,its the relay.... got some vice grips on the valance and untwisted it... bent back roughly to shape....that front left corner is the messy bit...what happened there? i didn't do it, i have driven it about 1500km tops since i got her off you... lets figure out a way to get that stuff down here. i may have to get a mate to pick it up or drive up in the wagon and get it all...scarce pickings these days
Yeah wasted az (mates 50th) way up north, did a tight turn around a overgrown grass, ::) hump, front left dropped in a hole with a covered up fence post, bam, I thought it fudged everything but only the guard and lower scoop (valance ?).
Had a whole truck yard to turn around and just decided to the tighty .... ::)
Have you got some photos ?
I will try and keep everything till you have all required parts.
Love the ooze and should have kept it and sold CHiP, but thems da breaks ... :-\
Just thinking I may have another fuel pump ... hmmmmmmm
i think I took one off the grey 200, just in case,
I will check, but it will be a few days az we have a major ride and party this weekend. >:D
Strange, the fuel pump was good (gauge was inaccurate) and the alternator was definitely the best one, and a decent panelbeater or handy guy could beat or roll the guard in to shape. Only reason i didn't sort it, was the new car and too many in the driveway (ie selling it), it still drove like the beast it always was.
Maybe it's just the relay ? Hope so, I'm just in the process of trying to get her on the road and fingers crossed a wof. Reg has been on hold for ages....lots of lil niggles around the edges with her . Will try and get you some pics when she's mobile again
Relay solders can dry out and crack, had this issue on my 90.
Got a BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGG box of relays, should have one for the pump.
Get the number.
will do tomorrow,hope its just that
Just pull the relay out and put in a jumper, will find out in 2mins whether its the relay
ok, on to the next problem....i need a left hand side rear brake caliper with the hand brake link on it for 200, anyone have one? mike? PBA? Anyone? it's pretty much the last thing stopping it from getting a wof...the whole caliper is pretty shot and corroded ....
No I dumped all the 200 stuff a few weeks ago. They are the same caliper as any other model
Will one off a B2 90 quattro work? I have one spare off my parts car.
i'm not sure? is it a girling 38?

re Brakes:
Yeah, only on CHiP tho, no spares ...
