I've also been considering one of these. We have rooftop solar here at home. And my wife with her e-car has been extremely smug through the whole current fuel shortage...

They look like they were cut from some of those 20 litre round plastic tubs! Even black would have looked better.

Understandable - everybody wants a Raptor!

Have been camped up since midday Sunday now, very relaxing. I have been perfecting the art of roasting and grilling in a Biolite firepit using charcoal briquettes. Marinated flat boned chicken- perfect, two racks of BBQ ribs - OK but probably needed a little more heat for perfect fall off the...

In case you are wondering the hose is a spare intercooler top hose for the 3.2 litre diesel, popular as a tow rig here in Aus. The 3.2's are notorious for blowing this hose and even Ford advise keeping a spare handy.

Ready to go tomorrow. Abotut 2 hours drive to our campsite, up a mountain range and then camping in the elevated land beyond. Will post more photos then. Ranger packed justt need to add the 12 volt fridge tomorrow. Not showing the back seat of the ranger - too much alcohol packed - we are...

Yes they taste pretty good too, my favorite way is to clean and scale the fish and stuff the cavity with a sliced up lemon with a sprinkle of black pepper, then cover the outside in butter + more black pepper and then wrap in foil and bake on the BBQ turning a couple of times. The flesh then...

I had to look up that fish variety, didn't realise it was a species of trout. We don't have any native trout in Australia, introduced North American Rainbow, and European brown trout, and brook trout, can be caught in the southern parts of south eastern states, but it's too hot for them where I...

I'm with you Steve, in my younger days, I've done the swag thing, the tent thing, the rooftop tent thing, the fold out camper thing, the wind up camper thing, the off road caravan thing, and now that I'm getting old and cranky, the comfy caravan thing, that like you, can pull up, and be set up...

That's interesting ours uses tapered plugs with sealer, although there is a machined face around the plug hole so you could also use a crush washer if you had a flanged plug.

Don't worry just fill it until it comes out the hole. How much to buy? A couple of litres should be plenty, I've done mine but can't tell you exactly because I pumped it from a 5 litre bottle of Transmission fluid. Don't bother to buy new plugs either, even though Ford say toss them and buy...

Well if you could somehow pipe that back to the engine, then a possible solution to the current fuel shortages. :like: Of course if you were to try that over here the government would stick a flow meter up your arse and slap excise tax per litre on your gas fuel. They would also slap a fine...

So true Dave, many years ago I remember a case at work of a timber floor polisher who had worked with urethane, and other solvent based floor sealants all his life who contracted leukemia. Of course people do just contract leukemia, without obvious apparent cause, but this guy freely admitted...

Mine is filthy after 3 months of almost constant rain ( hey who would have thought in alledgedly the driest inhabited continent) we have a dirt drive way that is now seriously in need of filling - actually used the diff lock a couple of times to avoid tearing it up more, a car port that has a...

I've often wondered exactly what those terms mean in reality. Like I'm a scientist by profession - what exactly are their measuring and classifying criteria? I mean what the hell does "sustainably harvested" or "thoughtfully harvested" mean. Like we thought about it a bit and then decided to...

Interesting, although with the hi tech diesels we use over here, we follow the Euro classification system, and most oils are ACEA rated, not API.

Up until recently I would have said cheaper too!

Not saying that this stuff is bad, obviously works as described, I've used and been impressed with Valvoline Max Life oils before, but you could likely also achieve this same effect with any good quality diesel engine oil. Diesel oil has more detergents in it due to the naturally dirtier...
