Long story short, got my head skimmed, garage went bust, didn't inform me how much was skimmed.
The impression they left me with was it wasn't a great deal!
Questions
Any way to tell how much was taken off?
Which gasket to get?
What thickness?
And where from?
BTW - Rev 1 '91

Door problems
Addressing an old problem on my Mk 2 Turbo rev 1 90. The Door doesn't seem to sit flush when it's closed. It's secure when it's closed but does leave scuff marks on the plastic door sills.

[Mk2] [Turbo] Coolant Temp Sensor, where to buy it from?
Usual overfuelling problem, it seems to be one of the perks of owning an Mr2. Been through all of the threads reguarding the possibilities and through a variety of tests have now narrowed it down to the Coolant Temp Sensor. (Green Plug).

As it says, i'm after a stick on front number plate, unfortunatly nobody wants to sell me one. I know they're illegal, but i'm willing to have a small brush with the law for the sake of a nice looking front end.
