Yesterday gave it a clean, filled the boot with camping gear and changed the oil. (Yuk! :o So much for the theory of getting away with longer changes on LPG). ::)

A fuel injected 700r Yamaha Raptor needing a little bit of TLC on its extremeties, runs and drives superb, just looks a little sorry for itself as its stood for 3 years under a tree!!now its worth double what i paid for it, but the guys was desperate!!so a couple days work on it including full service its then in use!!!

700 quad sounds like fun. :y
Just spent half an hour trying to fit an Omega drivers door into my Omega - Im taking it to work do do some rust removal and spraying it over the weekend. It wouldnt fit inside the car despite me trying every possible angle. Got it to almost fit in the boot, with a few bungees to hold the bootlid down. A bit knackered now. ::)
Also hunted high and low in the shed for the two circlips which hold the headlamp washer jets in place on the bumper. I know which shelf they were sat on last week, but I cant find them anywhere now.  :(

Oh, and noticed the cam cover gaskets are getting a bit more desperate. :-X

Which, on further investigation, is due to half of the cam cover bolts having worked loose. >:(

It's got a lot of miles to do this week. I hope the plug wells are dry... But have packed tools just in case. :-/
