    Tankwa - petrol

    This was the road...not the worst of it as this was manageable rock. The sand washaways were at times 2m deep, and single track footpaths went through the reeds around them. Mates 950 was tired and needed to rest...

    Tankwa - petrol

    Not sure if this road being mentioned is the same one as per this pic. It starts at the Heuningvlei backpackers ....just did it this past weekend. What a ride! But it is tough and I would not advise its done alone. Google says a car can drive down there....I would like to see this vehicle!

    Life in America - We made the move.

    Zog...strategic use of the word "we" in your posting I see. I had a similar query to Silvrav re who can do this work. In my mind, based on bar talk and vicarious experiences of others, I have this idea that in the states, you need to have any alteration work to elec and plumbing, be done by a...

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    @ Cracker...this behavior had me perplexed but I the only version I can thing, is that exactly that, the residual pressure held it in. The only other thing I did was take out the front cyl cam chain tensioner to see if I had a brain fart and installed it wrong, which wasnt the case.
