Haha after the L reading i did wonder what was going on, but after parking on level ground last night it was better. I was seeing the same idle pressure as i did before the change so i wasn't too bothered just glad it's ok. Still only taken just over 4L though

Sit rep ! All good left oil over night half way between the two marks. Can breathe easy now :-)

Good to see/meet everyone pub trip went a bit !Removed! up but never mind bigger and better things to come

Don't tell me that ! Ran car for 15 let cool oil at top, drove to meet checked oil and near E mark ! Put another slug in drove to pub left it ten mins checked again and was at full mark. Just got home now will re check in the morning . Hop no damage has been done

Traffic in leeds mental done a mile n 25 mins

Rough man maths says thats 4.2 us quarts which is spot according to us specs, i've put in 4 and the level is now sitting on the full mark. Prob about right as i don't bother extracting with a suction pump. Prob around half a litre sat in the block. I'll just keep an eye on it tonight

Level finally came up after adding that now can't get an accurate read haha. Still fired up gonna leave her for another 10 mins and see what it's like. Was worried a bit for a moment

4.5L left for nearly an hour just added another couple hunderd ml

Just done a change and brimmed filter then added nearly 4L waited for it to drain and settle only to find the dipstick is bone dry ? Before anyone asks the sump plug is in amd the filter is done up, Will i have to put nearly the whole 4.5L in or should i start he up ? Then check in ten mins

Haha not finished yet, i'm at work so drained & replaced filter just about to fill up. Spoke to martin as sheff subaru and he said do the dry crank. Told me an easier way of pulling the 2 main 30amp fuses in the main box. So i'll gonna go check the levels now i'm on me dinner and crank her :-)

Oil changed :-)

I should hope so ash, leaving out the milk should make things easier it's only a three step process then :-) Or have you neen hiding week tea all your life and blaming it on the milk ? Haha. If we can space the two meets a bit further apart i could get to both most months

Thats what you get from living out in the middle of east bumf**k :-) Still you aee on 1st name terms with all the local animals. I'm supprised there aren't more people from your neck of the woods to be fair ?

don't worry we don't all look like gambits profile pic :-) I may have to come straight from work so if i look like a scruffy **** apologies now

I'd leave it and wait, maybe connect a boost gauge see what your pulling. Chances are you'll want one after the remap anyway, Like sav says if your seeing normal boost there it's pretty good guess the ecu's stock. Sorry bazza, the open source question was to ash as he as a later car. Its mapping software thats not applicable to our cars

Did you get anywhere with those chaps regarding your hose ?

Is yours open source ? It's the cost of the board thats bunping the price up for us :-(

If this link works http://www.enduringsolutions.com/ECUGuide.pdf should see a list of compatable ecu's

Yes he'll provide and fit the esl board and do a 'live map' for that price

Yep thats exactly what i've been quoted from him to do mine, Where abouts are you located ? He said may be cheaper if i went to him. Or may be worth putting feelers out for a couple of people to get together and get a group discount if available ?

She had no choice, had mx5 before so i told her, i needed something with a big boot, more seats and the ability to go anywhere in any weather. Her only stipulation was 'it has to look safe and not too fast' So glad the mises takes no interest in cars :-D

I can only dream ! She had more hair than me when she popped out :-)

Six months in april :O Time flys

Not sure if classed as selfie or photoboming my own rubbish attempt at a pic of my girl haha

Or there should be a caption saying 'shut it you slaaaaaag' !
