There is an existing problem with air getting into the fuel line and when it is on a slope the fuel retreats all the way back to the fuel tank. This means it takes a lot more pumping of the manual fuel pump and turning over of the engine to get started than a small air gap when it is on a level surface. The garage think they have found and fixed where air is getting in but next Wednesday will be the real test!

I look forward to next Wednesday's news Alf ;)

I'm also enjoying the car saga. I think ITV are considering making it into a six part drama! :)

Off to the Premier League of Darts in Nottm tonight. Fell running it ain't!

Well after 7 weeks almost drink and choc free I had a mega blow out yesterday as a belated birthday treat.
Need to go for a run sometime today to sweat some of the ale out.
Back on track now and Pendle on the 2nd April is the goal.

Car started first time this morning looks like the Wednesday problem has gone away and this time they fixed it. They found a couple of leaky tubes using a "smoke test" to identify them :thumbup:

However the drama of the washing machine has replaced it center stage :thunbdown:

What's happening with the washing machine Alf? :thunbdown:

Loving the weather today! Blue skies and nice warm temp here in the West Midlands.

Oh yes it is so Spring-like now :thumbup:

Looking forward to my week in N Yorks the week after next :cool:

We had a week on the Yorks/Durham border a couple of weeks ago and the two gorgeous days were delightful (and the 5 wild ones made us appreciate them all the more). Got out everyday for a walk or run, brilliant. Can't wait to go back.

What shall I write for my 3000th post - any ideas?!!

'I must post more often'. Perhaps start with a couple of thousand times :p
