Fitted the inlet manifolds, fuel rails, coil packs and dip stick.
Expect it to be to damned cold the next few days to finish the job.

Had the air con serviced. It was done at EAC Telford on a Groupon deal (voucher price £26.95 vs. £69.95 list price). Faultless service from the garage so would recommend to anyone in/around Telford.

Obviously haven't been able to check the system's cooling capacity but the gurgling noise has subsided when running the screen defrost.

Swapped out the induction kit hoses to Yellow Silicone as it was a bit of blue and a bit of red 😱 so now matches engine bay .... and added a sticker 😁

Gave it a wash and then gave it its first polish of the year with some Auto Finesse. Noticed that the roof is just starting to show signs of corrosion around the hole made for the light bar wiring in its former life. It’s done well I suppose as the hole was drilled 13 years ago.

At last...
- fit the whole rear mirror android system.
It is AWESOME

- Began fitting 8 sensor "reversing" set with positioning the screen on the rear mirror. With double adhesive sticker to the bottom side. Also did fit the main loom of it.

- Replaced 2 of 3 front interior led bulbs with worm white ones - cold white is too irritative. Now the atmosphere is a bit calm inside

- Fit also the last interior walnut thing to the LCM unit.

More to go - tomorrow.

I also sprayed some dash trim this afternoon...as the weather was nice and I enjoyed doing some bits to Bumble.

Roll on the Summer

Decided to brave the cold and wash and polish my car. Finished washing it, and it was that cold the water on the floor had frozen. Thought my hands were a bit cool. Nice and sunny, so I got the Autoglym out and gave it a good polish. Quite pleased with myself, so changed the bulb in the rear number plate. Had my dinner, then vacuumed it out . All nice for the snow and salt on the roads if we get the weather they say we are going to get. Now back aching, legs gone, so put it in the garage after a ride round to drain any water off it.
