After all the work at the weekend, had new gas put into the AC. Nice to have a properly working CC again

Also bought 2 new tyres for 1 of the vans, 6 oil filters (needs an oil and filter change tomorrow!) and started thinking about the weekend when I'm training a new employee and meeting with another new recruit

Oh... And started pondering how to deal with another (potential) new area

With the help of Taxi Al, flushed the radiator another half dozen or so times .. not sure I could recommend the method we used given the likelihood of a serious scald but it was certainly effective at blowing all the brown goo out of the system!

No longer overheats now and when the temperature does creep up in stop/go traffic the fan actually cools it back down again

Only slight hiccup was losing drive briefly when giving it some beans; gearbox dropped into limp and recorded a U2105 - I suspect the plugs by the battery as they've been unplugged recently and got very wet today

drove it first time in weeks

No problem I don't recall seeing any water that side of the engine bay though , unless some steam escaped

Another week and I reckon you'll be pretty much done

Wasted my time going to ATS to change the A/C high pressure valve, Only satisfying thing was I told him to relese any pressure and i'll change it, A load of green stuff blew all over him (and the engine but he wiped every last drop, He'll be glowing in the dark now

Ah yes, painting the reflectors black... Always good for a giggle

Be interested in how well they fit, wrt strut and arch

Arch liner is the concern, there's loads of room to the strut.

I will be taking an older less worn sc3 to compare profiles before fitting.

...at what point is a tyre owned. Once fitted?
