Seeya Brett and Paul! I have 1/2 hour to go then I am going home!

Long ago, when sailing ships ruled the waves, a captain and his crew

were in danger of being boarded by a pirate ship. As the crew became

frantic, the captain bellowed to his First Mate, "Bring me my red shirt!".

The First Mate quickly retrieved the captain's red shirt, which the

captain put on and lead the crew to battle the pirate boarding party.

Although some casualties occurred among the crew, the pirates were

repelled.

Later that day, the lookout screamed that there were two pirate

vessels sending boarding parties. The crew cowered in fear, but the

captain calm as ever bellowed, "Bring me my red shirt!".

Once again the battle was on, however, the Captain and his crew

repelled both boarding parties, although this time more casualties

occurred.

Weary from the battles, the men sat around on deck that night

recounting the day's occurrences when an ensign looked to the Captain

and asked, "Sir, why did you call for your red shirt before the battle?".

The Captain, giving the ensign a look that only a captain can give,

exhorted,"If I am wounded in battle, the red shirt does not show the

wound and thus, you men will continue to fight unafraid". The men sat

in silence marvelling at the courage of such a man.

As dawn came the next morning, the lookout screamed that there were

pirate ships, 10 of them, all with boarding parties on their way. The

men became silent and looked to the Captain, their leader, or his usual

command.

The Captain, calm as ever, bellowed, "Bring me my brown pants!"

Hehe, another one!

    • As a general rule removing rubber fuel hose is so difficult I would replace it if it hasn't been done in the last 5 years. The risk you damage the liner or one of the inner layers is pretty high if it's not almost brand new. BMW's recommendations around coolant hoses is similar. My R33's fuel hoses at the fuel tank were so perished that they were ready to burst FYI. 
    • Ah yep, will do. Cheers!
    • Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.
    • https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au
