Can you use alternatives in modern transmissions?

That's a wasteful way of small package delivery. Our house neighbours have built this: http://www.businessinsider.com/doordash-delivery-robots-starship-technologies-2017-3/

I would change spark plugs first. It may just be one missing cylinder causing all this. My bike got new plugs last autumn and in spring one (V2) cylinder failed to fire at all, sounded like a bag of rocks in a bucket. These things break prematurely and luckily cost next to nothing. The only tricky part is getting the new one in without screwing up the thread.

If you're having the same exact symptoms then they didn't fix the cause, just the symptoms.

Same here. I've found myself opening the window more often than not.

You are my hero.

Here's a worry for a young man who's into crazy girlfriends. Or just married ones.

And then there are purists who have a modern system (Bluetooth, USB, digital receiver) built in their ancient radios with no visible difference. I like that.

Aftermarket radios are usually better equipped than OEM. So search for in-dash receivers. You'll probably need a 2-DIN (or 1-DIN if you opt for the cheaper ones) adapter plate in place of your original one. You can also have a reverse camera if you get one with a large LCD.

I have only used a few tankfuls (LPG mostly) so I have no good statistics but quite right, the needle drops pretty much in the first stretch of driving if I don't go crazy with multiple restarts. Never had fuel fumes in the cabin tho.

Is yours an Easy-Fuel capless neck?

It's a work in progress:

Welcome back! Toaster burnt a fuse once again and left for good I think. It's been rather peaceful here since

Over a year old offering. Might be irrelevant by now.

The ice wall in the edge of the world is very well guarded, no worries.

Oh damn, sorry about your eye man.

Actually, it works better for Mk1 which has round perforation. So whenever pulling from a roll of paper you need to be more cautious with the new model so it doesn't rip.

My favorite use for the parcel shelf:

40 is pretty standard profile index for performance tires.

If you have the plywood cut to fit already then get matching studs, screw them in place so they protrude by half an inch, put the plywood in place, put some pressure on the place where the studs are, they make a mark on the plywood panel. Take the panels out and drill at the marks.

Will you be carpeting it?

My relative has just bought the Traveller, almost fully loaded at €39K. The few things missing were the auto box, seat ventilation and lane assist.

That's not exclusive to America. Pencil pushers are dumb universally. I remember when the first aftermarket third brake lights started appearing on the market early nineties over here the lawmakers came up with a rule that there have to be two "third" brake lights and they have to be on the rear window, at least 15" apart or something like that. So brainless officials not understanding the actual effect of the third brake light (to be visible through at least one car between the seats to give more cars more reaction time) did not make any sense to them. Same goes with rear fog lights - some idiot required the rear fog light to be positioned off center to the left to some amount. So all the cars with a factory mounted center fog light were illegal.

Absolutely, really stands out.
