Technical i need a bob

[gaz.d]

i need the thing that connects the gsr kit to the engine, but to make my life easy i have named it bob, if i knew the proper name for it i would use that

all my local scrappies dont have any 899 centos in and my fiat is too far away and they wont deliver

so im asking anyone, if you are visiting your local scrappy anytime soon can you pick me up a bob, if you can pick me up 2 it would be even better, cash waiting and maybe even a forum sticker aswell if i can find them

thanks

Gaz, it's a plenum, or throttle body cap. Don't have a spare one though, m'afraid.

Gaz you got me thinking then cos a "BOB" is a "Battery Operated Boyfriend"

I was wondering why you wanted one of those, but i do know where you can get a black/yellow one from to match your car

Can't you ring Desira and get them to post one to you?

i am very old going blind cant see it too small

 

[gaz.d]

i cant find a decent pic , will keep looking though

 

[dave]

is it the black plastic cap bit? if so i dont understand why you need 2

 

[gaz.d]

yep its the black plastic cap that you find on 899 centos, it sits on top of the engine then goes into the airbox

i need 2 as i have tendancies to break things and i also fancy bodging together a 2 cone induction kit

 

[dave]

ar there was one at a local scrappy but its not my mates one, they would want money, how much are they new?

 

[gaz.d]

i think they maybe bout £10 new

 

[dave]

hmmm this scrappy proubly wana fiver then if i post it proubly be same price

EDIT is it only cinq an sei that have them, are there any unos an pandas with them?

 

[gaz.d]

i dont think pandas or unos have them, they have the normal airboxes, maybe a 750 panda might have it on

tbh dave price isnt really that important, i would rather pay same or a bit more as none of my scrappies have 899 centos in and my fiat dealer is too far away for me to travel on my bike lol

 

[dave]

i'll try my fiat dealer for price tomorrow then( if memory holds up) if you need 2 i get trade,

 

[gaz.d]

woohoo cheers dave, dont put yourself out, i just wish i had a car now lol

my cheque book and credit card are red hot today, i been spending loads
