Got a car running today that allegedly had a seized engine. Definitely needs TLC but I think the engine stopped automatically due to low oil pressure, not metal transfer.

Start the 3 up together and bet on which is last to detonate! Red motor always first, throwing no.5 leg outta bed! From memory they used the same slant 6 motor 3 years running.. Indestructible.

Hi Guys,
what made me feel good today was My Ford Mondeo. Two weeks ago i took some annual leave and my wife and myself drove to Adelaide for a week. The car is a real gem went great, never used any oil or coolant. But the best thing is it clicked 500,000Km now of course has 502,000km on it. Of course with that many ks on it ive done things to it. New Radiator, New Power Steering Pump, New water Pump, New Fuel Pump, but as far as the engine i havent touched anything in the engine apart from getting a new rocker cover gasket. When i went to get my Rego Pink slip in August the guy said to me "ive never seen a Ford Mondeo with so many ks on it and the car is still in good Condition. |

Went for my daily 7km walk tonight, leaving at 1730. Made it back home before last light (1845) and before most of the street lights had come on.
The older I get, the simpler I'm happy to live. And this simple thing made me happy today.
