Looks nice indeed. I have emailed the seller albeit with national lockdown in place the car cannot be viewed until its lifted.

-6?

Oil change?

No problem!

My pecker has disappeared after crawling around in the frost covered ground and my finger froze. but eh!

The oil of choice is a 10w40.



20l Container helps catch the drips



Old filter off



New filter....


Primed.


And spun on



I appear to have a small oil leak



Plug in.



New oil in and on my trip to work I did note the engine sounded better, with the 10w60 Edge it had a slight top end rattle even when hot, which I didn't like..

With the new 10w40 it is back to being near silent!

Very happy with that, a right result..

well worth the freezing..

Oh and the old stuff 4000mi old.

I can get down and lay on the ground but just can't get back up. So no hope for my pecker then

Well its sucking harder now then thats all I can say, its getting harder to get up after laying down and when I go for a `P` have a job getting past end of me boots use to be able miss em by good couple of feet (600mm) in the past.

Lower arms and inner and outer track rod ends done. Recalibrate of the height.
Got clever and put a small grinder mark on each hub knuckle and central on the front subframe so apon refitting could measure center to hub and hub to hub to get alignment near enough. (measured before removal)
Drove straight wheel sat straight.
Off to alignment all was in the green showing 0.03 left 0.05 right. Admittly a lot more luck then skill but didnt want to trash my front tyres.

Took the family and dog out for a run around the countryside (staying within our county and jot leaving the car!) and she performed brilliantly.

Need to swap out the DVD player for something I can stream to for the wee one though.

I cannot remember the teacher's name but I do remember him coming in and saying it wasn't funny to **** on the ceiling. I just remember thinking it was funny and a) it wasn't me and b) untill he mentioned it I would never have thought of ****ing on the ceiling.

Some say to jam yer hand down in detween the wing and body this allows ya to give them a clean, but I can't get my hands down there!

Compressed air?

Hot water?!

Dunno.
