Got a tyre fixed (was on the spare carrier, complete with a nail in it) so I'll put that on tomorrow, or maybe later on, when I do the wheel bearings and brake discs/pads.
Then to work my way through the diffs, gearboxes and engine, removing EGR and cleaning everything up as I go, change the brush bar for the smart bar, and then see how reliable the beast will be [bighmmm]
Mine came home! Well, for about 4 hours. Then it was on a tow truck again.:angry::angry:😡😡😡
Good news but not what happened after the dodgy brothers had been at it for oh so long[bighmmm]Quote:

Not really. I picked it up today. Today it is 4 weeks since Jan died. Her/our daughter was graduating and receiving the Vice Chancellor of Deakin's award at Deakin in Geelong. It was going to be a bit of a high point, and I was on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck.Quote:
