Got to the bottom of the idling issue on another OOFers car, post HBV change- one plenum O ring had decided to become a decoration on the inlet manifold. Returned to its home and all was well...

This morning I fitted the parking sensors I bought after the High Wycombe meet.


Later this afternoon I decided it was about time I did some more work on this:





So some masking I got to this:





And some filler-primer:

 :y I have bought a new rear seat belt and back seat,passenger side, for my omega estate as seat belt was locked and button would not come back up on top of the seat without taking a screw driver to it to bring it back up. Also got a rear cover in great condition for the estate as old one had parts missing from the end of the bars that go across (bars kept falling out).
Will fit them both sometime this week ;D . Also I am waiting for 2 new central door locking motors for the front may take sometime to fit because of my arthritis  :( .

The hardest part was getting the seat belt 22mm bolt out it must have been fitted with an air line or "Superman"  :o. Middle seat belt know working  ;D .Next job is to fit the central locking motors arthritis allowing after today.  :-\

Painted the quarter panel. Not a brilliant colour match, but should buff to a decent finish

Put some fuel in it as it seems to have more of a drinking problem than me.
