God, It's Been Ages Since I Last Wrote Here!

Posted on: Wednesday October 8, 2008

Well quite a lot has happened since my last journal. Some time ago I replaced the front wiring loom, no real issues, just some very tender finger tips! At the same time I fitted a smart screen intermittent wiper system. God it's good! One click or wiper switch, pause up to 2 mins, another click and it carries on wiping at that interval - just right for drizzle! I thought I'd upgrade the suspension, after lots of umming and ahhing I decided to go for gas shocks all round. The rear were gas ...

Oh joy...

What An Idiot I've Been!

Posted on: Monday February 19, 2007

On 2 counts! Firstly I bought the spinner conversion and started fitting it (a couple of weeks ago now) and it was still proving to be a mare - mainly the access and getting the o-rings to stay put. So I got underneath with my leadlamp and had a really good look up inside where it bolts together and where I thought there was no o-ring low-and-behold there it was. Then I looked at the oil cooler connector piece and, surprise surprise, there was one there too. How could I have been so stupid?! ...
