Hi all,
as some of you know I had a mishap at rotorstock and I need to have my turbo rebuilt.
I took the car to my parents house (preston, Lancs) with the idea to take the turbo off and send it off.
The car is declared SORN and I have cancelled my insurance so I can\'t drive it anywhere!!
Prob is I can\'t get the bloody thing off with the tools I got.
So this is a plea for help to naybody who lives in the area if they might poss be able to come help me sometime???
thanks
a desperate Graham
you have come to the right place
i live in chorley ( about 10 miles away )
shaunwill - he lives in preston
hotstepper - lives next door to me
thats a start :)
what do you need ( tools wise ) - and when do you need the help ?
during the day / evening etc....
let me know and im sure we can arrange a "helping" session
take care

thanks a lot that was a bloody quick responce!!!!
I am home atm, but will be going back to leics for work for the week, but can be back next sat/sun if that is at all possible to do it then.
I have about half the bolts out, but some are a little tougher to get out and form underneeth the car I can\'t get the leverage with my little spanner.
the blolts I have so far all seem to be 14mm, but not sure what the others are a range of tools with some leverage would be a good start thanks!!!

is the car undercover ??
just thinking of our lovely north west weather :)
i have some sockets , and extensions and the such like
shaunwill must have stuff ( did a front mount himself ) - so between us - we should have enough stuff
if its gonna be next weekend - then that gives us time to rally the troops ( so to say )
drop shaunwill a PM and point him to this thread
drop me a PM with you addy so that i can work out where you live
there is also Eatmyrx7dust - he is wigan based so not a million miles away
hope this helps

Just popped round to john\'s and grinder and he mentioned it. Any Chance when you next get back to it you could post some photos (or ask you parents to take some !) ?? At least get an idea of just how much still needs to come off. Its meant to be a very big job to do.
I\'ve got quite a few bits and bobs that may help and should be available to lend a hand next wkend.
Pm me your postcode, because preston is a big area !
I\'ve not got anything special for releasing bolts. Good old wd40 may be in order !
Im in penwortham, so very close.
