  7. Only 3 issues for Joe but all we sorted nothing major sticky starter motor solinoid (fixed with a rock)
    Then spit charge gave up presecco went warm )wire fell off relay, then judering in 4th (timing at 3500 revs was 20)but at 28' at idle it revs it's nuts off so set it happy medium and spent 1hour waiting for him to catch up then sent him off 1st and spent 2 hours bloody chasing him

  11. It's an amazing place the north of Spain, gonna tour next year them head off to Lisbon, great seeing you Simon.
     
  12. When it's sunny it's keeping me going but I made the mistake of using an inverterti pump all the kids inflatables up and completely zapped the battery but it's just keeping me going fridge ect I'm getting around 5 Amps going in to battery all day but as it's so hot the fridge is on overtime so it's take that !! I think 1 more 100watt panel would be spot on so 200watts total !! But beers still cold left home nearly 2 weeks ago and got a week left and battery only just got to 11.8volts but suns out now so it's boosting it up now

    200w for the win Si, always recommended that as it just takes the pressure off anything you throw at the system!
