When i got the sand blaster..... it came with extra nozzles.... which i put away.

I ended up buying/scoring another set of 4 nozzles, which i misplaced for around 4 days.
I found the second set, still haven't tripped over the first set yet.

I've got the zephyr and enough parts for another 2 cars, scattered over 4 storage rooms.

My memory is going i think, i just wish i knew where, so i can follow it.

Early dementia perhaps or..... what?

Why is it, i can walk from the main shed area to the parts/build Shit area, and totally forget why i went there or what i went to get?

You don't know, how right you are.

Why does the Austen Hospital have to have a different qr code system to the rest of Victoria ?

#jonesy · « **Reply #1456 on:** July 16, 2021, 06:46:48 PM »

Is that the Austin screening QR code? Lots of extra questions that the Vic QR doesn't accommodate

Kangaron · « **Reply #1457 on:** July 16, 2021, 10:01:21 PM »

Every hospital has their own specific questions, they need a tad more info than woolies.
My local has a comprehensive list on first visit, face recognition thereafter.

.......... and then you get a text saying 1/2 your order is ready - after confirming they have it in stock in store, apparently "Yes sir, we confirm that we have them stock in the store" means its at the warehouse on the planet Jupiter. Should be called OfficeShambles.

Go straight to the top.

The storage facility on Jupiter is run by a Mr George Jetson.
Ring him on 1800galactic and you'll be fine.

Make sure you ring the correct one, don't confuse it with Uranus, or you be in the Shit.

Why do modern/ish cars, have to be so damn painful to work on?

The ol girls Statesman, has the engine light on since doing the lifters.
Had a guy use a whizz bang code reader on it.
Reduced voltage to Mass Air Flow sensor.

If you undo the wiring clips, then reconnect the said clips, how the f... can you then have reduced voltage?
I've cleaned every connector with the proper stuff with no results.

Today, i'll run the ol girl to work, bring it home and have a further play.

Did the bloke with the code reader actually clear the original fault code?

Yep, and the connections.
First place I look when strange leccy things start happening.

Took me a while to learn it, though....

Jeepers Creepers · « **Reply #1468 on:** July 22, 2021, 09:27:17 AM »

Battery is near new and in good nick.
The code reader guy couldn't get the code to delete.
Have checked every connector and made sure they are spotless.

About to go have another go now.

On the older vettes the throttle bodies had a adjustment for the sensor . Small increments changed voltage, 5 volts or .5 volts from memory.

If i go near it again today, i may set it on fire.

Will have another go Sat or Sun.

Have you thought of replacing it? Grenade patrol owners carry a spare one usually

Yeah... i have, but i need to know its really that.... and go through all the cheap stuff first... i'm a tight-arse.

See, lots folks just pull the part, and then find, it wasn't that..... the shops won't take them back.
The thing that's doing my head in, is it was fine before coming off the car.

Having said that, lots of things happen by coincident when cars are involved.
This car is doing my blood pressure no favours.

What do you all do with your empty cans, stubbies etc when out camping

Do you take them all home again to cash in

If so, how / where do you carry them

We cart them out with us and drop them in the bin at home, or the next town if we're on a trip.

We carry them in a wheely bag on one of the spares.
