| bearings "wur"
CV'S creak and pop especially wen theres no grease in them (split CV!!!!) if its worst on full lock its defo cv's
but which ones is difficult to tell,
you could change the outer could be the inner, its that annoying!!!!! the outers especially n/s do get hammered epecially if you do allot of pot holes, and enthuiastic drivin
if the noise is more under your feet its probably your bushes in front sus arm(poly bush time call calimori!!) OR ball joints, or ALL of it
P.S matt's right GSF leads are pants, mine came from cafco but what make is beyond me | |

| how much fuel?
the old gipo method pipe long enough to get in the tank and to the floor, suck hard with a seal round the fuel hole and it should drian itself
in theory! | |

| the only way to get ALL the fuel out is by removing the tank..........or u could drill a hole in it!!! (i dont recommend the last one-it'll all end in tears!!) | |
