Hi all,
I managed to get the bus all back together and a few drives before heading over to Morton for a long week end. 5 days of fishing and fun, was an excellent week end and the bus performed great. Got to do a little driving around the Island, all performed well. Even got to kayak past a pod of Dolphins!
Did a lot less driving than Frazer, even so good to see with a few minor tweaks to mud flaps etc, got very little sand up under the buss, and a lot less over the engine. Hopefully a few more tweaks and I will keep most of the sand off the bus all together. Spent ages flushing everything underneath. and not a lot of sand came out.
Also glad to see with all new cooling system everything went well. With a hard slog in a few sections with soft sand and pushing hard in low gears, the temp gauge never got past 12 O'clock on the gauge.
