Yeah, dump the smoking to save money, get a cheap little runabout for Karen and then take your time fixing the Landy and you'll be right.
I had a bad week last week too, but stuck it out and its coming good now.

Well today has been better all bar the filthy headache ive had all bloody day..
Well went & looked at the green one today started it again & still the same so the fairies had'nt been..
So gave it a compression test the front 2 cylinders where at 170psi
The 3rd & 4th where at 165psi & 150psi
& the 5th & 6th where at 160psi BUT the 6th one was a mystery as there was no reading at all, HMMMMMMMM..
So did a wet test on the last cylinder & still no reading at all..
Took the tester out & used my thumb over the plug hole & theres a very faint suck , blow there..MMMMMMMM
OK so i gets a screw driver to see where the piston was & it was sittin at the top so i says to Karen just give the key a kick lets see if it moves & yep its moving..
So i put the plug back in & said to karen turn it over & i felt all round the back & sides of the head to see if it was a head gasket could'nt feel anything so did the same again but with a little oil aroung the head & no bubbles..
So off with the tappet cover to check out all the valves & valve train & all looked good.
So asked Karen to turn it over & all valves are working fine .
So off comes the head tomorrow & the sump to change the piston rings as they are the only thing in the engine i didnt change when i built the engine.So i recon the rings are completely gone on the rear cylinder & wearing on the rest SO i'll replace them with a new head gasket & sump gasket & all should be fine & dandy & back on the road..Well a week from thursdy wen i get paid again YAY..
I will also check everything else while its apart but everything else should be ok as its bandnew only didnt change the rings.. So that should fix it..
BLOODY CARS ..

I know that first hand mate. Sorry I sounded like a grumpy old bugger in my last post. I think...no....I know I was more ****ed off with myself.
As they say on the ads - maybe we should go and visit a quack. They have all sorts or ways to help us.![]()
Dont feel guilty about it, its just something we both know we should do.
I have a new surprise - cant say yet but standby.....(arent I a tease!)![]()
