I went up there Thursday and stayed the night at Lake Tennyson. Bloody beautiful. Just a shame about the sand flies in the morning!!

Re: Jan 11th-12th
Just replaced all filters and engine oil in the Safari. Felt a bit of a tit when i ran out of fuel just down the road because I'd forgotten to prime it after changing the filter. Rookie mistake!

7th & 8th
Maybe a day early but I went for a cruise up the Waimak to the gorge and my dog launched himself out of the window at 75kph. That was the end of my drive! He's been in care overnight and having x-rays today. Fingers crossed! Hope everyone has a great first weekend of summer....

Re: Snorkel Head, Which way to point

Does anybody have any idea who to speak to about accessing Molesworth Station over the Xmas break or how to get there if I don't need to contact them beforehand. Cheers

Turbo servicing in CHCH
Hi guys, I have a Schwitzer turbo and I noticed the impellor shaft has a bit of play. Any recommendations on where to take it to get new bearings/seats put in it and any ideas on price?
Thanks in advance, Jimbo

Egr Block off plate for GQ TD42
Hi guys,
I've seen these mentioned quite a bit on the Aussie forums. Apparently improve response and economy bit and stop the fouling up of the intake manifold. Does anyone know where I can buy them in NZ? Cheers
