I keep a couple of short lengths of plank with a bit of angle iron bolted to them, close to the ramps. They hook onto each ramp and the angle iron prevents them from moving as I drive up.

It was Jules's idea to reinforce the intercooler pipe connection where the O rings are used. I think he later suggested it was unnecessary.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
