grease monkey.
Just spent the morning changing my oil and filter… first time I've done anything mechanical with a car.
My new oil is cleeeean. Is it just mental, or am i right in thinking the car is now running a bit smoother? purring nicely on idle etc.??
I had a bit of spare time, as I don't start work till 4, so i took off my front offside wheel and arch and fixed my aerial back into place. Very minimal rust under my sportline arches, which obviously I was delighted about.
Picking up a fuel filter tomorrow, then gonna order a filler pipe and kit off crazy quiff and set about fixing my rusty pipe.
Anyway, just a wee bit about my day, and how chuffed I am with my wee black banger and happy i am fixing her up.
Hope you're all having a nice day!

cabriaulait and everyone else, what's the best way to clean the tank once I've changed the filler pipe?
