Engine time, been doing somw work on it after taking it out of the GSi and then dropped another XE into that last week, chhers to ste and Riggy. Decided also to kill the GSi when this one is done.
Should be on the road Wednesday too
Cheers to Ste and Riggy for help. Got some more to do, and I forgot what an arse they are to line up.
