Can't make it My mv engine decided to spring a leak from the head seal, on stripping down I found the exhaust to be in a sorry state so thought I'd treat the van to a nice stainless system from Mr Baxter but they can't deliver for at least
6 weeks Should I fit a normal system from JK or a stainless one from JP ????? HELP !!!!!!!

Just sorting last bits. Was going to leave tonight and stop at Stonehenge but my boy was up most of last night being sick. He's better now but I'm knackered.
Will be leaving early tomorrow morning. Anyone else bringing wife and child?
See you tomorrow.

Been weeping diesel around the seal of the tank level sender, keep trying to nip it up, looks like it's stopped, next morning - back again. So tonight having another go and just to throw into the mix the tee peice that connects to the Webasto pump starts leaking!! Must have been soldered before. (Any one got a good one??) Bit of 8mm micro bore saves the day. At least I find out now not tommorow! Just never stops does it....no matter how much money you throw at them... the gremlins just keep coming!! Fingers crossed it all works tommorow...and the BOV behaves itself, 'cause that was still blowing untill I stuck a pipe over the outlet and sealed it. Seems that's the general advise.
Bit of rain tonight and clear tommorow....How good is THAT!

We (Jake and I) headded up here last night for a spot of wild camping and a dinner cooked on an open fire, few drinks with the WAG's etc... It's obiously had quite abit of rain recently because it's a tad soft under foot to say the least.
Bring your wellies.
