And now, it has proper kicked off in Venezuela. Kidnapped the president and his missus, and obviosuly wants the oil reserves (and other "natural riches") for the USA.  This has ruined his chances of the next Nobel Peace Prize.  I am really interested in seeing how this progresses. I guess Nicaragua was sort of similar, but this time it is much faster and harder. 

That's proper cheap  

Oh. Well that worked out well.

It’s an oil I use in the tr and at least the 20/50 is on offer not checked the other grades   https://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-73741-valvoline-vr1-racing-20w-50-engine-oil.aspx?variantid=96506

Ooh err missus!

That reminds me, I changed the type of tacho as well in the end. 

These things (Smiths RVC tachos) are very variable and a law into themselves. I had to make a “coil emulator” using a relay coil to produce a sufficiently spicy output to reliably trigger the 6 pot one in the Vitesse. The RVI version is a bit easier. Just connect the coil pack supply through it and it works. Should probably add that the EDIS6 does not have a dedicated tacho out pin which I believe the EDIS does have. So I use the so-called diagnostic out which is possibly even lower voltage than the dedicated tacho out. Possibly the MJL box has a tacho out function as well?

Indeed. And Labradors are not noted for their risk assessment skills…. (Or even brain cells)

Not least because it’s barely reported. Likewise Yemen. On dust explosions….. in the early 2000s there was a bit of a trend for sludge driers among the waste-water companies. This to turn dewatered “cake” @ ~25-30% dry solids into dry pellets at >95% DS. All very costly and my then employer made good money selling large pumps to move the very viscous sludge cake around. Two problems though. Apparently no one considered that dried poo dust might be explosive. Even though “solid fuel” was one of the purported uses*.  There were a couple of explosions, one of which killed a man (Nash, Newport). This meant that several plants in the commissioning stages had to be redesigned to mitigate this “small wrinkle”. The next big problem was that nobody had apparently done the sums on what the energy needed to produce the drying effect might cost…. So almost none of the plants ran beyond their initial commissioning/handover period. *one of the other claimed uses was as an ecologically sound fertiliser for home/garden use. And it probably was fine fertiliser (heavy metals etc aside), certainly the drying process sterilised it. It didn’t even smell bad…… while dry. But when wet (and plants need watering), the smell returned with a vengeance…. Not many repeat purchases!

None….at…..all.  “Necessary to tuck under the bonnet edge to reduce drag”. I call BS on that though as both A6 and previous A90 (both famously slippery) managed this without this pesky compromise!
