forgot to metion that PROJECT SHREK prob wont be able to make it as his cars playing up, his loosing power and back firing up hills :dontknow:  thats a wierd one dont know wot it could be  

Got a text from him about that yesterday mate.  Said to stick a text up about it in the engine section.  Even though I'm still learning too I've offered to go and have a butchers at it too… basically I'll be scratching my head beside him so he doesn't feel left out:-

Shrek  me
 :scratch:  :scratch:

Just making sure were still go go go for tonight?

maybe i should come too we can all stand there in front of the bonnet in a line of 3 scratching our heads, we'd look like THE 3 HAVENT GOT A CLUE FLEA SCRATCHIN MUSKER HOUNDS! mk1 for one!!    i found it funny anyways!

yeah i know "dont laugh at ya own jokes an all that!!

Has he got more than 1/4 tank of fuel?

My old gti used to cut out spluuter etc when hard cornering going up hills etcetc when it was showing low on fuel.

He said he doesn't go below 1/4 at any point but yes it totally loses power going up hills or if he puts his foot down a bit bud.  Any ideas?  Thought Bert might know as he's a mechanic and told him to pm him.  He seems a nice guy so hope he doesn't mind.  Adma can't use it and it's his daily… hope Bert can suggest something  :dontknow:

mk1 for 1 and all for mk1… made me laugh Ian!!!

Would guess at fuel starvation.

Crap in tank, dodgy fuel pump? Hard to say without seeing the car and feeling the problem.

Adam mentioned he's used a lot of fuel since it started happening.  It's backfiring too… I'm at a loss and no mechanic he's went to understands the older more mature cars  :dontknow:  ….

….we're leaving in 30 minutes   … love seeing your motors but don't half annoy me knowing mines off the road   .. good motivator though I suppose!!

Excellent turn out yet again… made better by the fact it could have rained so true dedication… love it  :y:

We even had two unexpected visitors grace the carpark…. check the PICS and Shows section for more details… or if you're a lazy git click here lol  :wink:

the unexpected visitors might of been me, i turned up in the red mk2 golf.

come down to see simon and samuel as i am fairly local, and to see the lovely bunch of mk1's

didnt wanna turn up in the polo tho i fort i'd make the other half look silly so i let him drive haha. i have a few mk dubbers who own mk1's that cudnt attend, maybe nxt month ill bring them along

saw the left hand drive (20v?) in leighton buzzard last nite around half ten, driving down the road from mcdonalds

Hi Smil,

I think Phil came over to see if you and your fella were ok and were part of the meet.  As everyone says…. you don't have to be in a mk1 to come along  :wink:

Really do hope you can make the next one… you and the other mk1's   … a lot of people wanted your fella's wheels by the way… they look nice sitting under that mk2!!

Another great turnout.  

What can i say but thanks everyone for making the effort with some bad weather forcasted. I like Marks (Funk-star) idea of an alternative meet at IKEA as there is a multistorey carpark there.

Supprise visit from 36CF and Sam, always good to see you, and Tian braved the roundabouts.

Prob me mate though not a 20V  :wink:

More than welcome in a Mk2 or anything for that matter. Yours was looking sweet, wanted a closer look. Almost brought my Mk2 as well!

unfortunatly the mk2 isnt mine, its the other halfs. I drive a mk3 polo GT coupe that i may bring along nxt time (if i dnt feel too stupid, altho im not an owner i loooove mk1s and my day will come)

Yea i suggested the ikea idea to simon incase it got really wet but hopefully it was a one off and the nxt few month meets/shows will be better weather  :roll:

I will get the mk1 boys from my local forum dwn next time.
By all means come to our milton keynes meet, its for all dubbers/vaggers etc. (dnt mean to advertise its just usually a good turn out.. www.keyneondubs.tk)

i agree, they are lovely wheels, bit scruffy tho. need a gooooood polishing up!
