  1. Some Zeds use a lot of oil ... upto 1 litre / 1000 miles

     

    Really, wow! That seems like a heck of a rate to use oil to me. Never had any car munch through the stuff that fast. Maybe I don't thrash mine enough :lol:

  2. I think you need to top up quite a bit with such a low reading. It is a hard to read dipstick, but when it's more at the correct sort of level, I think you will find it a bit easier to read. I always take a few readings one after the other just to be sure, as you do get a splodge or two here and there which can confuse things a bit and have you wondering just where the level is exactly.

     

    I'd also be a bit concerned as to how the level got so apparently low in the first place. Had mine ~9 years and never had the level go down really. I do check it now and again, but I don't recall ever needing to top it up. If I ever have done it would have only been a very small ammount, certainly nothing like the quantity yours seems to need. Once you get it topped up I'd keep quite a close eye on it to see if it maintains that level or starts going down.

  3. No worries mate, will try the Zman.

     

    Should I be after gaskets with the metal ring in the center, or the 'plain' ones?

     

    Does it matter? What do the new zorsts come with?

     

    Cheers :)

  4. My struggle is over, picked up a used one last night :)

     

    Need some new gaskets & nuts 'n' bolts for it though.

     

    Do you sell gaskets for them at all? Had a quick look on your site but could not see them listed.

  5. Glad to see you got my PM at last :lol:

     

    Yes I'm still interested in it, PM me a contact number and I'll give you a call about it.

     

    I think this is Seb's old zorst off his original zed? if it is I went out for a spin in that car when he first had it fitted. Sounded nice. It was a bit more shiney then though :lol:

     

    Cheers,

    Paul :)
