How many bits did you have left over ?

None but it ain't right, not running on all cylinders, check engine light up. Tried disconnecting coil packs but that didn't isolate where the problem lies so could be one of the injectors. Operations will resume tomorrow.

Evening all 'tis I rodders! Now into our second week with no internet and very iffy mobile signal - hence my infrequent postings on here. It's actually quite pleasant
Been to the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu today - I could have happy started all day, but SWMBO dragged me away, not before deeing a 75 1.8 with 1 mile on the clock
We're moving on Friday to Gloucester - first leg of the long journey home - for a week. Reputedly there is wifi at that site, so I'll try and catch up with some photos. In the meantime, best wishes to everyone who isn't too well at the moment -especially Derek and Phil.

Thank you Jeff, the scan this evening was undertaken by a vascular specialist, more detailed than the one last week. The bypass, left leg is in top form, no issues there. The other leg, the aneurysm underneath the kneecap has got bigger and if untreated, there is a risk of pulmonary embolism and death

The abdominal aortic aneurysm is not as big, as was claimed last week. I don't know what the surgeon is going to say about the results. If he offers surgery, I will go ahead. I am seeing him on Thursday. He did say last week, if I need the aneurysms done, he would do the hernia FOC.

Thank you Rod, I am in pretty good shape really, not in any pain and today we walked 4 miles. Maybe I am in denial

Been to Beaulieu a few times over the years. My fantasy is to bequest the 75 to the museum. A fascinating place. It's a shame we are not meeting up this time round, maybe next year. I look forward to seeing more of your holiday photos. You must have a nice camera ...
