More annoyed than angry. Decided to change the oil and filter on the beast. Before I purchased the vehicle I found a quick release valve that screws into the sump to take the mess out of the trajectory discharge, just like I did again today, pulled the plug and off the oil shot out well past the catch pan, 500ml on the concrete. After the engine drained, went to screw in the new valve, wrong thread - had this defined by Brunswick and yes, they picked the wrong one, so back to the sump plug again.
Then decided to find out if one of my BOSS airbags had a leak as it wouldn't stay inflated, so jacked up the car, removed wheel and bag assy, dropped it in the pool, no bubbles. Went hunting and found the issue with the in dash gauge pressure release valve that allows 'on the run trimming', yes its crap and leaks, so put it all back together and now the battle starts with the supplier as the gear has been installed over 12 mths.
Went for a drive to gather some info regards the flowmeters on the engine and it appears the data from both the fuel injector mob and BD is way off what i am measuring, perhaps 500%, one flowmeter not working, looking like its electrical within the flowmeter, so back to the supplier with the new numbers and 'round 2'.

Angry for a long time, until today.
My folks brought a Panasonic full HD Video camera couple years ago. Great little thing until you want to watch the videos on a non Panasonic TV (AVCHD file).
After countless attempts to convert to a file that would work on other TVs without success. I realized that the book that came with was only a Basic operating instruction one. I Found the full Owners manual online all 168 pages got the wife to print it out at work and now within 1/2 hour and a few pushers on the touch screen it will convert to 1080/60i to the sd card.
Now mum is 76 and dad 82. They, mainly mum managers the camera,TV and other electronic devices. They do alright, so if i sit her down and show her a few times she will be able to convert it by herself, so when they are out at a friends house she can pull out a USB and say "here pull this in your TV" and it will work.
12/97 GEE YOU
