    Paid to get a lot fixed and then went on a rampage myself:
    New radiator/water pump/oil O rings etc, speedo fixed (stuffed wire from the sender), idle fixed (bad wire again), new pressure tank.

    Got out cutting compound and a scourer and took the alloy part of the 15s back to a shining gloss, cleaned the whole thing inside and out and under. Got into the engine bay with detergent and elbow grease....

    .... endured dirty looks from the DC2R as I should have been spending time on it (at 38K kms on the odometer it looks spotless even when it's filthy so I left it to tomorrow :) ).


    moar dc2 teggy pics and specs plz!!!

                      Cool man, how difficult was it and how long did it take you? I'm about to tackle my first TB/WP job in the coming weeks.

                        Take your time and print out the DIY write up and you will do great. Not hard, just time consuming. Expect around 5-8 hrs if first time.
