After driving through heavy rain and all the flood water my cars paint surface is absolutely covered in tar. Millions of tiny tar spots all over the car giving it a really rough feel as u slide your fingers across.
So yesterday I tried a different approach because this is beyond claybaring. I stuck a spray nozzle in 3M Wax and Grease Remover and sprayed it onto a small part of the surface. Instantly you can see the tar dripping off the paint. To avoid any scratches or paint damage I used Wash & Wax with my sponge to wipe it off. Works a treat!!
Get yourself some 3M Wax and Grease remover for tar removal!
Well they solved the timing problem and now it runs fine. Picked it up and did a quick inspection and noticed something odd underneath the driver's side of the car:

Notice how there's this massive snap in the plastic, is that something I should fix? What is the that opening to the left for? I was also concerned as to how low it was hanging..
and the frayed cam sensor:

Poor insulation = perfect example of poor cheapskate build quality.

sprayed the shit out of my car with Mortein - ants decided to build a nest in the side skirt...............
Changed the oil, fitted new DBA Slotted front rotors (waiting for new pads to arrive) and finally fitted the short shofter...
