lol, kids today, dont know they're born lol :lol:

......... hang on, wernt my parents saying that to me 20 years ago.... :roll:

To think, in my first job, I had a Canon AP350 ELECTRIC typewriter with the rather funky daisy wheel and on board 3.5" disk drive - and a little LCD display so that I could scan through what I'd typed before printing it, I had to use a Telex Machine for sending messages round the world, and the 'car phone' in my bosses brand new Ford Orion 1.6i Ghia was the size of a small country in North Africa! :lol:

And then I'd go home and play Atic Atac on my Spectrum 48K or tune into one of only 4 channels on my black and white portable telly - which I had to get up and walk over to so that I could change channel or turn it off! And if the telly was uninspiring, then I'd play records and tapes on my Matsui Midi system with all of 4 watts (and mum still moaned about the 'dum dum dum' noise from the stereo :lol: )

Ah, happy days!

i was born 1974 The 80s were the best years of my life i grew up with the first showings of stuff on tv

Knight rider, Airwolf, A team (oh god why has it taken this long to get them all on dvd)

Anyway um Back to the future i was there first showing in cinema and i think Ghostbusters was out great stuff to do and at home

Commodore 64 with disk drive loads of games and funky demos some are still wierd today but wont go into those uuuurrrrrr

big trax
lots of Knight rider toys
i even had that wrist watch that looked like the one on the show they used to be in argos for £17.50

I filled up with Shell's new V-power (new Optimax) as a treat tonight and cost me £1.04 per litre.... whoah... this is heavy!

[Guinney1971]

be VERY careful with these new 'optimax' type fuels!

I know of 2 DeLoreans who's injectors have been buggered up by using this type of fuel.

It basically 'cleans' the fuel system, and in the process moves all the sh1t in your fuel to your injectors and cloggs them up.

Luckilly, we own and ultrasonic cleaner, and sorted Rich's injectors out after they were ruined by BP Ultimate.

Please, DO NOT use premium fuels (optimax, etc) in your DeLoreans, as it will screw up your injectors at £40 each.

[Chris Hawes]

That's interesting reading. In this case I was topping 50% off with the v-power but in the past I have used a fair amount of the Optimax. I guess my internals are pretty gunk free otherwise I would have been going through lots of injectors....

Anyone else use the high performance fuels and had problems?

[NickT]

Being a tight yorkshire man, I only buy the regular unleaded !

I do have an injector/ tester if anyone needs thier injectors testing.
I lent this and my fuel pressure testing stuff, spare ignition amplifier and spare idle ecu to help diagnose Richs running problems.

Well i never i have never heard of a tight yorkshire man never

i hate them scotch locks there for boggers only
BT use them

hheeeeeehhheeeeehhhhheeee

ive heard of tight scots but never never a yorkshire man

i have good friends in wakefield

[Chris Williams]

No, being called a tight yorkshire man is common unfortunatly. In fact everyone I work with referes to a yorkshirman (me) as; "a Scotsman with the genrosity squezzed out" cant imagine where they get that impression

Just a thought, i used super unleaded when my car was first on the road, it was then left for a month, and a couple of weeks later the acumilator hose split and i had to get it picked up by the rac, the hose was changed from the same batch of hose and it has been fine for 2 years, but i have never used super since, coincidence possibly but i blame super unleaded.
