Took her for the first run with the new shocks and without the snorkel. Shocks are ok, but man is the engine running smoother and more silent now! Never thought a snorkel would have that much of an effect. Now I don't know if I put it back on one day ...

Be interested to see if you MPG changes;)

Me too! I have to get rid of the roof rack, towing gear and bull bar first. Sad thing, something jas to go on the roof. Kayak, roof tent... But we'll see! As she's also, and always was, pulling like hell (part of the problem is my right foot...) I maybe can postpone the engine refreshment. But we'll see!
 
Not today but yesterday, didn't get online then though. Took the P38 for a trip to the garden centre to pick up outdoor furniture that won't fit in the Fusion. Got there fine, wouldn't start when tried to leave - half catch but not properly firing. Done that before but at home after standing a while that time.
Ring cab, get home (not too bad a distance but didn't fancy 6 miles uphill walk in yesterday's temperatures). Grab the jump leads and the Fusion, drive to garden centre, jump start first turn of the key. Home unloaded and trickle charging ready for the garage trip on Wednesday for the service, regas, wheel swap, suspension check of last year's advisories, and now adding battery and starter / charging / earth cable replacement. While they've got it, they might as well do that.

I never go anywhere without me jump starter pack
 
My new SVA/O pedal set covers arrived today. Fitted in less than 1 min. Look so much better now compared to boring plain black rubber covers. Main stealer wanted £200 plus VAT for a pair. Got mine off " the bay " for much less. LOL
 
Decided to remove the eas relay to see what happens overnight. It was decidedly warm! Is that normal? I know they have a relay inside (which was hot to the touch) but doesn't sound right to me
 
She’s been stashing paint again, hasn’t she? :D
Have you been on the phone to her? This morning started with can you lift the bedroom carpet,new one arriving Thursday and you won't want to be doing it after hospital on Wednesday,when it's up can you PAINT the skirtings and architraves,can you carry on into the ensuite as the new paint shows it up.Pity I'm an outpatient, could have done with a few days bed rest.:eek::D
 
The purpose of the relay is to self level every 6 (or is it 8?) hours, apart from that does it do anything else? I'm sure the system still operates with it unplugged though i think you get the MAX 35MPH message?
It is every 6 hours,with it unplugged it disables the system hence you can see if it leaks which corner it is leaking from.
