Interesting deposits Dave...did you drain the fuel rail and injectors before you cling wrapped them?

Probably is sugar...

well obviously not :P 4 months it took to get like that...maybe condensation was building up inside cling wrap...not sure... need to do some testing...I have 10lt od e85 here maybe i should put it in random things and let it sit....see what corrodes ;)

Ah well of course it's gonna leave some shit in there then...would dissolve the moment you run more ethanol through it. Though on first start it may make the ethanol a bit crap. That is one reason we say to leave petrol in there to "pickle" the system if you're leaving your car dormant for extended periods of time. But I don't imagine that sugar shit causing any harm anyway.

Quick recommendation on new headlight globes since mine blew last night.

Thinking either OSRAM or Philips Xtreme-vision, but open to suggestions...

I've used Philips and Narva?, much of a muchness i think

Im not too shabby a solderer but circuit boards are so much easier than free hand. Struggletown even doing RS232 with jaycar kits. Smell of cooking skin is stronger than solder

Come solder my lights

I put the xtreme vision in the missus Mazda3.

tested it with a lux meter I downloaded on the phone and saw about a 40% higher lux reading in the same exnvironment.

very noticeable difference when driving in the country as well.

BUT I've run the same in the ute and they do blow more often,

as the saying goes, those the burn twice as bright burn half as long.

Narva plus 120 or Intense if you like white/blue light

But I'm not biased or anything...

Can supply soldering iron and lead-free solder.

cant say id do a very clean/tidy/good job, but will work.

If your bored on the weekend come around!

Otherwise was going to buy a solder on the weekend and fix my front indicator light, as the wiring as torn off
