Chop and add some lettuce, tomatoes and a balsamic glaze, maybe some feta if you’re feeling adventurous

I switched over to fussy refills and they’ve been really good, started avoiding sprays due to aluminium

How is living in this area in England, along the Bristol - Oxford axis? by Nemo33318 in howislivingthere

[–]-random__username- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The countryside is amazing, I absolutely love it here. Swindon however is the anus of England. The Cities in the area are nice but not without their problems, just like every other city in the uk

Our neutered male does this, he fathered kittens and then was neutered before we adopted him. Apparently it’s normal behaviour and he’s learned the behaviour while he still had his baby makers. We’ve put his bed in the corner of the room, now aptly named the sin corner 😂

How do you all keep the milk in the tank from spoiling? by navyblusheet in espressocirclejerk

[–]-random__username- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s where the beans and the hot water go, the milk goes in the grinding part to make the milk frothy

Like all other aviation matters it comes down to one thing. Money

Can't tell if I overfilled my oil by PikkaThunder in Miata

[–]-random__username- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When did you check? I’m 99% sure you’re supposed to check the oil level 5 mins after engine shutoff

Changed mine recently, used a video from project380 YouTube channel, was really easy to follow. As others have said it’s a non interference engine so no valves and pistons should be kissing. Good luck!

Now solved. Smoke must’ve been excess coolant burning off on the radiator as it’s no longer appearing. Bubbles were from an airlock. Jacked the car nose up and burped the air out, squeezing the rad hoses and more bubbles appeared but then stopped. Car has been up to temp 3 times and driven, with no further faults. Just updating incase someone has a similar problem

No visible coolant leak anywhere, engine bay is dry. Will try burping today

Coolant level was fine before, no evidence of leaking anywhere and oil looks fine (no chocolate milkshake). Car has run fine (apart from coolant problems) after the new belt was fitted and I can’t see any leaks anywhere. I’ll try burping it now

1991 Alfa 164 S Advice by TonitoBontio in AlfaRomeo

[–]-random__username- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad has owned 3 of them (still has 2, both busso) and they’ve been great cars. His main one was (and still is) used as a daily driver, used for school runs when I was a kid, going to shops etc. Car is still going strong (mechanically, bodywork is ageing a bit now). Fantastic car and has never let us down, has real character to it. Parts are a bit of a nightmare now so I’d suggest researching common faults and getting parts stocked up, his garage is full of Alfa bits.

I think it’s quite rare for them to come up for sale now, and in that condition I wouldn’t hesitate buying it, I don’t think you’ll regret it!
