New Section please?

[turbo-roj]

Hello,

Was wondering, for all of us Newbie's could we by any chance have a section where we can ask dumb ass questions, there are a couple below for example and also, perhaps a tutorials request section, i.e. list a load of wanted tutorials and when someone carries out any work on their car perhaps they could take pictures and write instructions etc, everything from Fitting a dump valve to changing a clutch, again examples below

I think this would eb a good idea to people who are less mechanically minded and really want to get their hands dirty and get to know their cars

NuB Questions:
whats the pipe on the actuator for? does it matter if it has a slight kink in it?
what do I need to set my car up at a rolling road?
how many men/women does it take to change the interior light bulb?
etc etc

Tutorials Wanted:
How do i fit a dumpvalve (not for me!! already dun it!)
how do i fit varying gauges
how do i fit a clutch (big one i know!)
how do i fit an RRFPR
how do i fit a new fuel pump

Stuff like that really, i think it would be really handy, like a little section for newbies and all you experts out there could provide some lovely illustrated tutorials

what dya think Mods?

Anyway, please dont piss on ma bonfire lol, like they did on top gear - use condements as insults, for example - this thread is............ salty lol

I think there should be a thread/section for FAQ's and the answers to them.

Been working on making the site a little more informative but it's a hardfought battle at the minute...

On the first day of joining the site I stickied a 'Tutorials wanted' thread in the wanted section and I've seen little response.

I feel a 'Dumbass' section will not stop every section of the site being hit with beginners questions to be honest.

Ahhh, ok then, so if i put a few wanted tutorials and see how it goes, could there be any kind of offereing to people who complete the tutorials wanted?

All the fame and glorification that comes with being a nice person...

Jesus, maybe that's not a good incentive!
