Ok, as requested by pat, gonna do a cruise down to sutton rd for texi.

Date: 19/5/12

Meet: cross roads KFC

Time: 5:30pm

Leave: 6pm

Cross roads KFC is pretty central, then hit the highway, and cruise on down.

Please note, NO stupid behavior.

That's why were going to sutton.

Let me know if you're coming.

And we will leave pretty much on the dot.

Hope to see you there, cheers, Luke.

haha thanks Luke, yeah i was going to do one but i had a lunch date to rush to so was leaving it to...well now.

Any chance i can ask one more favour? a GPS address for this KFC so i can just punch it in and forget about it, are we sure we want to time the exit with peak hour? no chance of a lunch or mid afternoon escape so we can get out there in time for dinner? Or are you hankering for some fried chicken as road dinner...

pwned by Shell yet again!

yeah i didnt realise that 'crossroads' was actually a legit name for a place, figured it was just some kind of in house shorthand for somewhere i was clueless about..thanks for doing the legwork for me though :)

See you on the saturday i guess!

sorry guys, i did mean the 18th, realised, but was already back to work(wrote up at lunch).

unfortunately, the wife has to work.

im putting in for an annual leave day, otherwise, i dont get home until 6.....

in regards to peak hour, its more on the tail end of the traffic congestion, so just pray its not too bad.

either way, im quite content to head down with just bthe missus, but also wouldnt mind others cruising with.

just hope its not raining...

facebook event was a good call, gf wont finish till 5 and thats in balmain..what are the chances of making it to the crossroads by 615?

(she has no sickies left..farken)

i know sweet F all right? still could be worth a shot..

is dave the only one leaving earlier?

Maybe get her to ask her boss nicely if she can leave an hour or 2 early.

I don't know what she does, but would it be possible to start a little early, so she can leave early?

Hope something can be organised.

Looks like I might be the only one leaving early Patty, the way I see it is I'd rather get down there at a reasonable hour, get settled, have a feed and a few bevvies then get to bed at a resonable hour.

I must be getting old :(

yeah i get your logic dave and would definitely be in the same boat (33 now arrrgh) except for the womans problems..typical eh?

she is prevaricating about coming anyway so depending on what goes down before next friday i might see you on the way there after all..

I will be leaving West Ryde area circa 2:30pm on Friday 18 May, hoping for a cruisey drive and 5:30-6pm arrival at Eagle Farm Hawk Caravan Park thingo with beer in hand shortly thereafter. Might see you on the Hume Dave074?!

I can guarantee I'll be sitting on the deck, feet up with brews in hand by then haha. I'm going down through the day too, if you want to tag along then cool

More than one brew at a time...excellent. By then I will have been (self imposed) 5 weeks off the grog so VERY thirsty.

what time and from where are you leaving Steveo?

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
