Posted 11 months 2 weeks ago #217441Anyway tomoz I'm off to see it I can straighten the bloody thing again! Being on an invalid pension, of course he has no money, so he is in a real bind, as there is no transport up there, it's not like he can hop on the bus the poor bastard is stranded!
If I can get it back on the road it will be sporting a bullbar this time........enough of this easy to shatter plastic bumper shit they stick on these things from the factory!
We like to have bullbars for very good reasons here in Oz!

Posted 11 months 1 week ago #217714So far the cost is under A$1000. Not bad for brand new parts.
We took my ute to pick them up, the damned thing was running like a hairy goat, burning rich, when I got back I thought maybe the MAP sensor had shat itself so I rummaged though the spares and found another, went to fit it and found the vacuum hose to the sensor had gone as hard as a rock and split
Whacked a new bit of hose on......sorted!
