Today i just got into Kisylorda and the turbo started to howl like a banshee in fact people were pulling over because they thought it was the cops. and then on the bypass it let go and now i know why people call them oil burners ! because i was travelling in my own eco system. Also at the boarder 3 days ago one of the rear suspension bags got a cut in it some how and burnt the pump out an easy fix a new bag ,Wait im in Kazakhstan and not carrying a spare so out come the manual inflators and limp into Aralsk where it got realy bad ,No spare there either so tried to repair with a patch but trouble is at 90 psi with no tyre to compress the patch it blew off so I gave up for the day and got a hotel. Next mourning i remembered I had a tyre repair canister for repair and inflation purposes so thought it was worth a try so i put it in and half inflated the bag and left it for a couple of hours while i went and got a sim card. When i came back and inflated it fully it seemed to hold up so started off and it went down slowly so i pumped it up every hour and it still holding after about 1000 miles and only have to pump it up every 3 hrs now.
now I have a hotel and start to look around for a turbo that will fit or get one sent out from UK or even fly back and get one,
The joys of travelling with a P38
