Hi Michael. Some good tracks out in the hills near armadale. Been iut there a couple of times. Used to live in armadale briefly. Have you been exploring yet?

[Koolbananass]

Not yet. can't drive the patrol in the moment as I been to busy to book a driving test to get manual added on my licence, also doing my truck licence, but with anyluck I'll get some time off work and sit the test soon, but might need to get my rig fixed up first its a bit low on power will have a look at it next weekend at check the usual suspects dirty carby, fuel & air filter, loss throtle cable, and adjusting idler And mixture screws.

May as well do leads and plugs, check dizzy cap and points too. Have just bought a 91gqtb42 and all that needs doing as well. Except for the carby bit tho.

[Koolbananass]

not sure if I have the extra cash to replace all them but Ill at least check them for wear and tear, hopefully Ill be able to get a few Ponies back in to the old girl,
