sounds like a top fuler huh, i fired up my 2.0 8v cally with no fanimold, didnt really care as it was a dying engine and we were changing it, so i gave it some stick and it shot flames out the front. set the next doors house alarm off, was amusing at 9am LOL! he didnt find it funny sadly.
good luck with the rest of it.

sorrry guys phone was playing up all day, couldnt make any calls,
myke - yeah pirtek sorted me out well, got what i needed for the grand total of £3 
also drove further up the road int one of the biggest breakers i have seen and saw a nice little SRi and nicked the MPI fuel pump out of it 
doubt it will be ready for the weekend as lee is really busy and im still waiting on the ecotec adaptor plate, so if anyone has one they could send me i would be more than happy
