pure caustic soda (mr muscle and the like contain diluted version) works great leave it on for 30 mins wipe down and your done.

but if you get it on your hands it hurts, but there are some advantages (no fingerprints)

No fingerprints? No fingers at all probably.

Caustic soda has a more damaging effect on skin than say hydrochloric acid as it is alkaline. The skin is also slighty alkaline so adding to the caustic effect.
Not necessarily better at shifting burnt on sh!te though

both me and my dad only have partial prints due to this wonderfull stuff (that and the fact our hands are covered in calaces) it is definately the best for ovens though as the crap in the oven is carbon which iirc is slightly acidic so you need an alkaline to get it off

What's the longest you can leave between winning an auction on e-bay and paying for it? Or is it seller dependent?

 

[custard]

7 days before a seller can start an unpaid item strike

I think it's generally up to the seller. If they specify a certain time like most people selling cars do then that's that. But if there is no mention of it I think it's down to the seller and the buyer to comminicate and agree.

probably

email the seller,many will wait if you contact them before bidding
perhaps offer to send a small deposit to cover listing fee's

What are the rules on swaping your engine?

For example my Bravo is a 1.4 so could I put a different more modern 1.4 engine in my car. Would tax/insuracnce be the same would i even have to declare it to anyone? Im sure I would but lets see.

:chin: Wonder if i could 4x4 panda my bravo hehe

 

[craigb244]

as far as i know swapping engines for the same capacity engine is fine. just do it then send off the log book with the new engine numbers

Cheers lets see what a few others think

Could be good, 6 speed 100bhp Bravo :chin: Id definatly look into 4x4 cant imagine 4x4 being easy though.

My bravo 1.4 is 80bhp and i need a big project.

 

[custard]

technically if the engine differs from the OE engine spec then its a modification
insurers can actually be funny with engine swaps tbh
mind i had some funny quotes/experiences insuring a turbo converted cinq!!

 

[Munkul]

yeah you have to inform the DVLA with new engine numbers, and also insure it as having a different engine.
