....but it turns out I had just run out of fuel. I've not used the van since Brighton Breeze and literally must have crawled home on the last drops of fuel. So I nipped to the garage and for 5Ls to get her going. Then Katie and I took the van out to the tip and to the supermarket to give her a little run. When we got back I then decided to give the van a good old wash ... she's starting to get quite rusty in places so my plan for next weekend is to finish emptying the garage and get her in there. I had a quick look in the engine bay and realised I have got 'engine bay envy' (ebe) after seeing Richard and Jens shiny engine bay. It was so nice driving round town in a bright Pink bus :tophat: I'm sure this post has been of no interest to most of you but I thank you for reading ...
bit of tlc over winter Dan & Pinky will look great, bits at a time mate, thats all it takes (I have some undersealing to do on Major over winter)
Don't be envious - we've got to keep it that clean now! I'm glad it wasn't anything serious other than fuel with Pinky - we've 'broken down' twice on the way to get petrol before now...
true - sadly when my engine blew up and i had to spend £2k the guys who did the work was the opposite of Birdy. he literally shoved it in - no fuel line replacements, no cleaning up - he even left of important bolts and left the fuel pump loose ... i think instead of Birdys Buses it should be called 'Birdy Loves Buses'
