jeff oakley Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Yep been there done that, it hurts like nothin else - get yourself an engine hoist Did use an engine hoist but as I had given my word I would do it for Robc I don't like to let people down, although he as well as my wife questioned my sanity! Anyway the good part is that the engine looked good in the car and he only needs the body now. As for the pain, yep it is bad but I think Blatman is correct with the Kidney stones being worse. My dad had those and the treatment did not used to be lasers, it was a hook down the pipe if you know what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Passed (as in p******** out) both of mine. The hook sounds eminently preferable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morbius Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Passed (as in p******** out) both of mine. The hook sounds eminently preferable... A friend of mine had those. came on quite suddenly and pain so bad he nearly passed out. The hospital broke them up with ultrasound but it was 'a long time passing'. He was worried that they might take away his PPL, as they can recur. Then he went to Australia on a flying holiday and turned a quad bike over with his wife on the back and broke his collarbone. Luckily she was only bruised and did not give him too much of a hard time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 He was worried that they might take away his PPL, as they can recur. They can recur. I've had them twice. Both times they were small, but still incredibly painful. The "cure" is quite simple. Try to ingest some citric acid every day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crash Override Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Having read through the route notes from Crash to process the MSA approval I wish we could make it. anyone in doubt about going along then go, it looks like a great event Thanks Simon, that means a lot to me coming from the C2C road tour King.
