1 of my fiat punto's ignition coils has juts packed up.
Need to fix it today - no garages open.
Was wondering if you could go to a scrap yard and get an ignition coil
from any small car and fit it as a temporary measure with a view to

I just want to put my rear wheel back on (rear shoes on Mazda 323) and

Does anyone have an updated map DVD (and program CD) for the Nissan Primera

In the last week, my Fronty has started losing water. I topped it up on
Saturday and have done about 100 miles since then (about 40 of them towing a
horse trailer and horse - total approx 1500kg). Last night I needed to add

removed the pipe past the valve. Got the missus to operate the washer and

Thinking of buying a motor for about £2K (approx 3x as much as I've ever
spent in the past!) and wondering about getting a survey done on it.
Are the AA ones OK? Any other organisations doing them? What sort of money

The Grundig SC303 in my Cav has just gone doolally and won't tune in any

'Proper' SC303s with the removable display (as opposed to the later ones

What is the best way to repair  a Black, natural, plastic front fender
(Bumper) scratched on a brick wall and not so deep
Thanks D

Any ideas on what it might be.
Possible clutch problem ??? If it is. Is it worth just changing the
bit, or the plates and bearing etc.

This is a hypothetical question.....well, maybe!
I have two battery chargers, a 5 amp and a 4 amp.  What would be the effect
of hooking them both up to a battery at the same time. Would it increase the
charge current.
