Filled it with gas (again) ::)

Really need to look into the grumpy idle (although I suspect it's related to the dodgy stat ::)), cam covers and suspension all around ::)

Oh... And I really must do an oil and filter change, it's definitely overdue :-X :-[

May be able to do it for you at work this weekend.Im on days. ;)

Might have to take you up on that but, tbh, I just need to pull my finger out and do it... Of all the things that need doing it's one of the few I'm actually capable of doing myself!

Put a bit of oil in, to please the CID, and let a couple of PSI out of the tyres.

still, in an intermitant way. Its been fine since though, so far.

stat and alternator changed since it was last done, and found a couple of leaks, bloody jubilee clips really are not the way.

I did that today too ::) Really must do a change on it :-X :-[

Also got to have a decent drive, without the doggy in the back, on the Enduro's... For a budget tyre they're very good in the early part of their life :y :y
