Yay Sunday

Today I had a win! Iv been searching sround for exhaust manifolds to mount my efr9174 high or low. The stainless investment cast Artec brand ones are the priciest and look to be awesome. Anyway they are $2100 A dollars and $2300 ish NZD over here. A NZ shop had one in stock and I had thought nah that's way to expensive. And then 2 days ago it popped up on trademe for $1 reserve so I jumped into the bidding. I got it for $615 + postage $640 total. What a friggin bargain, im stoked! So il be investigating the high mount option now after all. The shop must have had it sitting around for a long time and just wanted to cash up. They surely wouldve made a loss on that one.

Car battery is dead this morning. Have noticed a bit lately that it doesn't take much in terms of doing some work with the door open etc to flatten it so I knew it was on the way. Only 3 years old which is a bit poor.

yeah, basically need a battery maintenance charger these days... can't spend long working with the battery connected... I guess that's why a lot of places disconnect the battery instead of leaving it connected...

Yay Monday

I'd better go out and swap the fuel pump today. Fun fun

[Puffwagon]

Holy cow man, I'm pumping the fuel out and the fuel pump is making all kinds of grinding noises 

[Slowxr6t]

Sounds like its run a bearing lol

[k31th]

that's your "bad" fuel pump? succeeding to get the fuel out to put in a replacement pump? good fun, eh?

[Puffwagon]

Yeah it's the bad one pumping out the fuel. I'm onto the second jerry now, it's slowed right down and is only pumping about 1 litre per minute. Looks like I'll be here a while...
