Sealed it & no more dampiness

So far

So you didn't fancy trying the regulator pack then Tony ?.......on another note I'm in Stockton tomorrow for a couple of jobs, then onward to Stanley late afternoon if you want me to check out those injector readings with a stable voltage supply

Took the bumper off to de-fog the headlights. Came up really well, considering I only spent £6 on some wet and dry, then used some t-cut and car polish I had on the shelf. Noticed my Shannon tube needs replacing, didn't notice the ducting that was perfect for it in the garage till I'd put the bumper back on. Nuts.

Just finished changing the pcv filter, oil filter, oil and fixed the washer jets.

Fed the leather with Gliptone, vacced, washed, waxed with Auto Glym, then stood back in admiration

................... as you do!
