Wow, NA's comment made my day. And it's only 6 am here. :P

Marcus, like the sig. Good luck with the van again. Have you thought, maybe it's time to move on?
I only just got it, and the problem this time was my own fault. I was going to take the spark plugs out to clean them, then realised they were bloody awkward to get at, so refitted the leads, but one of them must be not fitted properly, hence the engine only firing on two cylinders. But I can't tell without getting underneath, due to the stupid 45 degree angle of the engine. Besides that's it's all working fine, went to a local breaker's yard and found they had two Daihatsu Hijet vans in, so went and cherry picked bits off them, and got the parts a damn sight cheaper than I would have elsewhere. I may go back and attempt to get a shock absorber from one of them, although I'm more dubious about that, since it's a part that's not easy to test on a vehicle with no wheels.

Marcus the clinker. That's funny though; even at full capacity your van's engine is only half the size of mine, and my car isn't the biggest on the lot. :)

Marcus

Have you seen one of those vans? They aren't exactly big. On full capacity however, I do have a full 993cc capacity. :O

God I wish I had the knowledge to discuss this with you.

I know, but I'll be spending less on fuel for mine. Hang on, I won't because fuel in the UK is stupidly expensive. :(

Nightangel: cc is the amount of fuel/air mix that the engine can contain in the cylinders at any one time. the higher the cc, the bigger the bangs when they ignite and thus the increased power the engine has.

CG, what is your car out of curiosity?

According to the pic CG posted, pure sexy. ;)

It's earlier in this very thread I think. Or perhaps in one of the meet a member threads.

It was red and sexy, this much I remember. :P

Unfortunately that wasn't mine, I was just borrowing it. :( It was a 1985 Chevrolet Corvette; with a big and beautiful 230hp V8 (we're talking at least 5,700cc).  8) You just tap the gas petal and that baby roars! Ain't nothin' like the feeling of that power on the road.

The car I normally drive is a 1996 Chrysler Cirrus model POS (piece of armadillo).  :P

We've got a Chrysler 300c. No idea what that produces but its pretty silent. Big car though.

Really? I love that car. :D

Looks roughly equivalent to a Ford Mondeo. Could be worse, could be a Prius. :P
