you any good with a paint brush Tony.
I am, but I wlil bring my own brush. They wear into the user like a fountain pen nib. Does this mean I can get out of getting greasy hands for a change then. :lol: What needs painting Mac?

(:-})
The MacCave needs a 2nd coat...I hope it's a big brush Carl or you may be there some time... :lol: :lol:

You will need to have a front vac take off point fitted.

I have gauges but without the take off point you cant do it Darren.

Front take off point present and correct MacV2 :thumbup:

That's quick and easy enough but I find that it's more effective if it's IN the lines. :lol:
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Depending on how much I get done beforehand, I'll need to change the hydraulic fluids, balance the carbs and fine tune my fuel screws. Probably need to adjust the head bearings too as they'll have settled in by then. Then you can all point and laugh at my TEAL storm with it's YELLOW bellypan and I'll pretend not to be offended or hurt

Haha you should be on stage!!! Or on medication!!!

Back on topic for a few seconds if you please....

If anyone has the proper crimp tool for the terminals for a MOSFET, I'd be grateful if you could bring it along. In payment I'll take a photo of you sitting on my Teal storm so in years to come you can show your grand kids what a cool colour it is!!

:D
