Same shit different country.

Remember a couple of years ago, helped a friend with some issues in his house during christmas. The hot water pipes were frozen.

Never went over -30 for a week.

Mats whats your problem..?

You tried making me out to look stupid when i replied in this post
regarding how i worked on a car the other week.

Yes the f#8kin dump meets the exhaust.

Whats a dump in your eyes? Or do they have a different word for it in your country?

You looked stupid saying i stuck on a wastegate with gasket cement, please read the threads properly. and please dont write
in reply to any other posts by me, you will be ignored if you do.

In other words mats, get a life.

I think there's some confusion here, I'm just trying to figure out what you mean but you are all over the map. I didn't bring up the wet casket cement or the dumpvalve to the exhaust.

GarthW wrote:Ah sportuner i know what you mean!!

Have been changing a turbo on my friends car today, was bolting the exhaust back to the dump, and i get the wet gasket cement in my eye!

Damn, so wasnt a pleasant experience lol

Car was on jack stands on a pebble carport floor lol

I have only heard about dump valves as in by-pass valves that dump excess boost pressure to atmo, they are in the intake system and nowhere near the exhaust.

So re-read your own posts before exploding.

You two are talking about different things, Garth meant a dump pipe, not a release valve.

Mmm, explode i did, and for that i'm sorry.
But in my first post i said- "Where the dump meets the exhaust!"
How you mistook that for a valve dump or whatever is beyond me.

Now Mats i know you have a vast knowledge of Alfas, i wish i knew what you did, but you must realise i'm learning and you are way too
quick to jump on someone if something doesnt sound right.
But then again when it comes to reading text on a screen, it can be
misjudged, and taken the wrong way. Anyway enough said and thankyou
to-MEZEVENF, short and sweet

LMAO@Xrad, hehe, thats funny, and NO i'm not into that!!

Garth,Mats is a typical "ICEMAN"!!!!!!!!!The humor is dry,the replies very direct and to the point.Almost Germanic!
I think Id also be like Mats if I had to live in that cold and misery!

Take it easy guys,look deeper into the replies..Ive never known Mats to be intentionally shitty or nasty..or diplomatic..hehe..

Post my cheque Mats..

Yes, a nice picture of the Swedish summer...

not.

GarthW: I'm sorry too, text and the internet seem to make everything sound like an insult sometime.

One thing though, even if I might have some knowledge I'm always asking a lot of basic questions that might seem designed to make the other guy stupid but I have long ago realized I know only a very small amount of the stuff that is out there so asking the basic question back often reveals really interesting stuff.

Also like Barry says, I have a hard time sneaking around the point, I usually go for the kill instantly.
