sutol 0 Posted January 15, 2007 Thought I would show you a picture of a 'fast road head' (had receipts) which was taken off my sons 1.9 after it self destructed at Oulton. If you look carefully you may detect the intricate porting and flowing of the inlets, done in such a way as to be unnoticable to the insurance mans searching eye.

I'm looking really closely and I still can't see the head, I'm fairly sure it's not my eyesight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahl 4 Posted January 15, 2007 Unfortunately you can't tell anything from those pics. I take it you're using a camera phone or digital camera to take pics of printed photos? Try scanning the photos in or taking the pictures on 'macro' mode and you should get better results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sutol 0 Posted January 15, 2007 (edited) Unfortunately you can't tell anything from those pics. I take it you're using a camera phone or digital camera to take pics of printed photos? Try scanning the photos in or taking the pictures on 'macro' mode and you should get better results. The photos were taken originally with an ordinary camera and scaned into the computer, Unfortunately, photobucket will not upload the resulting image nor can I upload onto this site for some reason. Photobucket says 'wrong type' of something and this forum says not allowed so I took a digi pic of the picture and loaded it into the computer. Hey presto... crap picture Think I need to study how to change IMG's and jpegs before trying it again. Back to the drawing board How the hell did that happen?????????????????

welshpug 1,656 Posted January 15, 2007 open the original image, go to SAVE AS, there will be a drop-down menu with different file types in it, choose whichever Photobucket is asking for. Then have another go at uploading the image. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then have another go at uploading the image. Tried that but probably messed it up, will try again. Not that good at the computer as you may have guessed, give me an SU carb to sort or a dizzy rebuild and I'm in my element Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maturin23 10 Posted January 15, 2007 Christ, man - the suspense is killing me In the pics I can see it looks like your engine builder ironed the head - surely that can't help compression?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
16v205 9 Posted January 16, 2007 Download THIS from microsoft. Once youve got it and its installed, right click the picture on your computer and youll have a new option to resize picture about 4 lines down. When it saves the image it will default save it as a jpeg. Rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sutol 0 Posted January 29, 2007 how is that hapend ? That is happening when someone screws the nuts off a 1.9 in fourth and then finds third again when going for fifth. The revs are on the limiter because this person didn't lift off the throttle to change gear, the consequent change to third (ooopps) increased the revs of the already screaming engine to about twelve grand and the cam belt gave up the ghost.. shock I did repremand him in the usual way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
