I Was Just out side my house sorting out my carb out, when the phone rang. so i quickly ran to the house to answer it. being 20 feet away from my car. i didn't make the phone in time. so went back out to carry on, when i noticed all my tools, my dump valve, that pipe that goes from the Turbo to the plenum trunk, which were all in the tool box had all gone
*surprised* i thought No way!!, i was not even 30 seconds, and never thought that could really happen. i kind of lost the plot, thought it was a joke from a mate.. few hours later, no joke. someone must of been watching me, or just passed by within that space of time and took it all.
im soooo gutted. kind of my own thought :(
Im just waiting to get a garage round the corner from my house, £10 a week they want, it can't come sooner. bastards.
anyone on here got one of those pipes that connected to the trunck of the plenum that can sell me ? and a dump valve please.
guess i'll put that in the wanted part. funny thing was, i was just about to put my carb with the inlet manifold and plenum attached on the tool box. good job i didn't.
Anyone recomend a good ish tool set to get please. no tools to do the job :( sorry to go on..

Cheers lads.

have a wee wander around all the lanes / parks near your house, my experience shows that if someone has oportunistically nicked them theyl ditch them somewhere nearby and come back for them later :) rather than walk about in broad daylight! .. had a welder nicked before, and a bike, both found about 2 mins away in different lanes/woods.
