Freed off the screws and fixings ready to take my back bumper off tomorrow.
Offside vent is leaking badly. Undone both towbar bolts incase it needs removing to get the bumper off.

Sorted the Oat anti froozal for the winter.

(including fully clearing the almost blocked bleed into the header tank.)

Played about with some spaghetti behind the dashboard, at least the fuel burner now works from the remote and switches on the heater.. tomorrow’s job it to tidy the wiring and put it back together.

Nowt really, I fixed my central heating, so I now have a nice warm house

The ZT however is in disgrace, I opened the bonnet to put a different ECM on test, only to find a split in the top intercooler hose.......nice
