How's it going?

Na i like giving her heaps.. Its worth it just to see her bite....

I swear that crapoyta is a woman with PMS..
I went out to start it this morning as its not raining , I knew it would start as i wond the hand throttle on the other day..
So i gets it going & drives it in the back yard & thought i would wind the hand throttle off & just let it idle if it would ..
Well the damn thing did so turned it off checked it out under the bonnet all is ok so started to check the water, oil .& all the fluids..
Well water was ok so just toped it off , Put some brake fluid in it as it was down a little..
Check the oil & when i pulled it out it looked burnt the dipstick so i wipped it off & put it back to check, Pulls it out again to see the level well it was as dry as a something , it didn't even register on the stick..
So i fills it up.& i check the fuel filter for blockage its fine..
So i start it up again & check the choke isworking & its fine ..So i let it warm up .Once upto temp I kick the pedal to stop the choke & what do you know its fine & idling right..
So i have know idea as to why it wouldn't the other day but its fine now & Fatty is out in it ...
But it does need a carby rebuild as it has a flat spot & gives a cough & splutter every now and then so i will get a kit for it & see how it goes...

It sounds like the Tojo's been taking lessons from the Landy, there could be hope yet!

Well that the pamphlets & papers done for another week.. & crapoyta is going she must be over its PMS.....

Banjo - is that 4Runner suffering from the damp and wet? As I recall, the weather up there improved and so did the beastie...

Is it worth checking out the ignition wiring?

Well its been one of those real crapy days again..You know just want to die.. So bored.
I did mow the lawn so thats done for another 3 weeks ....
I have some little jobs to do to the rover , But its a pain in the ass cause i have to bring the car down to the little shed to work & then hope it dont rain Cause then i have to packup in the wet.....
Fatty's booked in on saturday for a tattoo ( i love knowing the tattooist cause they are free) cant put a pic up as its not allowed where she is getting it ..
Fred went & got a little star on the inside of her wriste with the money she got from the nights work she did so she's happy..
Karen & the kids keep telling me its time i should get my sleeves done but i would rather spend money on another landy so i would have something to do...

Yeah i checked the wiring it seems ok .But under the dash is full of dust & the plugs on the instrument cluster are all worn so you have to give it a tap every now & then so the temp gauge works & the clock...
